frightened rabbit – december’s traditions lyrics
december’s traditions
suck the last of summer from our cheeks
draw the curtains, strip the trees
in so-called living rooms
scottish pastimes come to roost
love’s labour stains a linen sheet
the ghostly body
who makes his bed beside you
is slowly losing teeth
the boy needs sunlight
and a shot of modesty
he needs to get some sleep
it’s not the answer
a sticking plaster on a shattered bone
what do you need?
what do you need from me?
it’s not the answer
keep treating cancer like a cold
what do you need?
what do you need from me?
after months of grieving
f-ck the grief, i’m leaving
will you leave with me?
the bloodloss, the towering cost
of mouth to mouth and tongue to tongue
one lick brings warm metallic taste
i can’t correct myself
convince you that there’s no-one else
in volumes of new leaves
if you want a saint you don’t want me
it’s not the answer
a sticking plaster on a shattered bone
what do you need?
what do you need from me?
it’s not the answer
keep treating cancer like a cold
what do you need?
what do you need from me?
it’s not the answer
i’m just begging to be told
what you need?
what you need from me?
if i had the answer
i’d write a book on what i know
what do you need?
what do you need from me?
