this is a lonely Christmas for miche. more so than all the other Christmas she has had to endured by herself. miche wants to find a way to get through everything that is happening, but even as miche is typing all of these out, tears are trickling down. miche only wishes that all of your Christmases are better than hers.

Merry Christmas everyone. merry christmas


and even though the moment passed me by
i still can't turn away
cause all the dreams you never thought you'd lose
got tossed along the way
and letters that you never meant to send
get lost or thrown away
and now we're grown up orphans
that never knew their names
we don't belong to no one
that's a shame
scars are souvenirs you never lose
the past is never far
did you lose yourself somewhere out there
and don't it make you sad to know that life
is more than who we are
you grew up way too fast
and now there's nothing to believe
and reruns all become our history
a tired song keeps playing on a tired radio
so tired that I couldn't even sleep
so many secrets I couldn't keep
promised myself I wouldn't weep
one more promise I couldn't keep
it seems no one can help me now
i'm in too deep
there's no way out
this time I have really led myself astray
runaway train never going back
wrong way on a one way track
seems like I should be getting somewhere
somehow I'm neither here no there
can you help me remember how to smile
make it somehow all seem worthwhile
how on earth did I get so jaded
life's mystery seems so faded
like a madman laughin' at the rain
Little out of touch, little insane
Just easier than dealing with the pain
A thousand lies have made me colder
And I don't think I can look at this the same
But all the miles that separate
Disappear now when I'm dreaming of your face
I'm here without you baby
But you're still on my lonely mind
I think about you baby
And I dream about you all the time
The miles just keep rollin'
As the people leave their way to say hello
I've heard this life is overrated
But I hope that it gets better as we go,
Everything I know and anywhere I go
It gets hard but it won't take away my love
And when the last one falls, when it's all said and done
