Splitting Up Christmas

So what if it's freezing, I'm awake and I'm happy The sun's steepling its shards on my floor I drag my feet to the shower and I hear someone singing I keep the lights off a while and the water gets warm Now I knot up my tie and toss books in a schoolbag They keep my priorities straight So I can sleepwalk through work like an outpatient program I don't buy but get through anyway And at some point I'll call you and tell you I miss you And you are the point of my day And my face will get flushed and my throat will choke up When you tell me that you feel the same So I have been thinking of splitting up Christmas To see everyone I'd like to see And you're first on that list You're the lotto I hit You're the star at the top of the tree And I have been feeling this good for a reason My friends and my family You all are my backbone You keep me balanced and settled And I'm in debt to you all endlessly So tonight I will call you and try to say "Thank you for being the sun on my face I know the world's almost over but you make it seem better And I hope for you I do the same"
