I see it now in white
The whole house covered up
But you weren't inside the night
The basement flooded up to the second floor

It's a sad holiday
Does the snow melt away
And reveal the grass?

It's the warmth of a kiss
Never speaking of it
And it all will pass

[Chorus]
But you don't want to see the lights
You don't want the company to see you cry
You're not one to make a fuss
You don't have to come out of the room to us if you don't want

I feel it now, you're right
The whole house buzzing some
But you pretend to sleep and cover your eyes
And I had a gift for you when you're downstairs

It's a bad view from here
It's the people you're near
They're all the same
It's the place you grew up
Do you feel good enough?
A family in a way

[Chorus]
But you don't want to see the lights
You don't want the company to see you cry
You're not one to make a fuss
You don't have to come out of the room to us if you don't want to
