Sad Christmas (lyrics)

lyrics
(Verse 1)
The holiday is here again, the same as every year
But the magic’s all run out, replaced with silent tears
The snow is falling heavy, matching the weight I bear
Of every broken promise and the empty, lonely air
The lights outside are shining, a beacon in the night
Reminding me that I’m stuck here without your gentle light
(Chorus)
It’s a sad Christmas, the saddest one I’ve known
Sitting by a dying fire, entirely alone
The tree is standing naked, no presents underneath
Just the hollow ache of memory, the sorrow that won't leave
No carols fill the silence, no laughter takes the sting
It's just a sad Christmas, and the sad, sad song I sing
(Verse 2)
I walk beneath the mistletoe, a bitter, cruel joke
Remembering the first time that our silent love first spoke
I trace the lines in the window frost, your name I try to write
But the glass is far too cold to hold a memory of the light
I keep the radio turned off, avoid the cheerful noise
Because everything reminds me that I’ve lost my only joys
(Chorus)
It’s a sad Christmas, the saddest one I’ve known
Sitting by a dying fire, entirely alone
The tree is standing naked, no presents underneath
Just the hollow ache of memory, the sorrow that won't leave
No carols fill the silence, no laughter takes the sting
It's just a sad Christmas, and the sad, sad song I sing
(Bridge)
(Music swells with a cello and a subtle, weeping violin, becoming more emotional and pained.)
They say that Jesus saves us, on this hallowed, holy day
But no miracle can bring you back or take this pain away
My faith is in the pieces, scattered on the floor
Just like the broken ornaments behind my closed door
(Chorus)
It’s a sad Christmas, the saddest one I’ve known
Sitting by a dying fire, entirely alone
The tree is standing naked, no presents underneath
Just the hollow ache of memory, the sorrow that won't leave
No carols fill the silence, no laughter takes the sting
It's just a sad Christmas, and the sad, sad song I sing
