Merry Christmas
Well, that′s what people say at Christmas, right?
Except normally they have somebody to say it to
They have friends and family
And they haven't been crouched naked under a Christmas tree
With a needle in their arm like an insane person in a mansion in Van Nuys
They′re not out of their minds
They're not writing in a diary
And they're definitely not watching
Their holiday spirit coagulate in a spoon

You can′t quit until you try
You can′t live until you die
You can't learn to tell the truth
Until you learn to lie
You can′t breathe until you choke
You gotta laugh when you're the joke
There′s nothing like a funeral to make you feel alive


Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful
Will you swear on your life
That no one will cry at my funeral?

I know some things that you don't
I′ve done things that you won't
There's nothing like a trail of blood
To find your way back home
I was waiting for my hearse
What came next was so much worse
It took a funeral to make me feel alive

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful
Will you swear on your life
That no one will cry at my funeral?

Alive

Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful
Will you swear on your life
That no one will cry at my funeral?


Just open your eyes
Just open your eyes
And see that life is beautiful
Will you swear on your life
That no one will cry at my funeral?
