This Christmas
Unwrapping New Beginnings: A Christmas of Self-Discovery and Resilience
Lyrics
(And speaking of love
Initiating a conversation about love
weren't you and I going to
Referencing a previous agreement to discuss love
talk about that today?)
Confirmation of the intention to talk about love
(Yes we were)
Affirmation of the planned discussion
A few stolen moments
Highlighting brief moments shared
Is all that you shared
Expressing that only limited time was spent together
Said you're sorry okay boy
Dismissive response to an apology
I do not care
Indifference to apologies
You have lost all of this
Stating the loss suffered
You get no goodbye kiss
Denying a farewell gesture
I need a man who is true
Desiring a truthful partner
So this Christmas
Connecting the sentiments to Christmas
I won't think of you
Deciding not to think about the person during Christmas
I won't sit in stockings
Rejecting the idea of being sentimental during the holiday
Sulking in my chair
Not dwelling on past memories
I don't miss you darling
Asserting independence from the person
Or the memories we shared
Acknowledging the end of the relationship
Though I fight with my all
Struggling against the urge to respond to calls
Not to pick up your call
Resisting the temptation to answer the phone
I'll find a man twice as you
Expressing the intention to find a better partner
So this Christmas I won't cry over you
Reaffirming the decision not to cry over the person
Though I miss you so
Acknowledging the feeling of missing the person
I won't let my emotions take control
Determining not to let emotions take control
So this Christmas
Reiterating the intention for a Christmas free from thoughts of the person
I'll try not to think of you
Committing to avoid thinking about the person during Christmas
(Of course some people,
Introducing a perspective on maturity
may never grow up)
Suggesting some individuals may resist growing up
She must have been friendly
Implying friendliness of someone involved with the person
For you to risk it all
Pointing out a risk taken due to friendliness
I see that you regret it
Observing regret in the person's actions
15 missed calls
Noting a high number of unanswered calls
It must suck to be you
Expressing empathy for the person's situation
All that big attitude
Attributing a negative trait as the person's downfall
Was you down fall after all
Summarizing the consequences of the person's attitude
So this Christmas
Declining to answer the person's call during Christmas
I won't answer your call
Choosing not to respond to the person
Though I missed you oh
Acknowledging the feeling of missing the person despite the decision
I let you have way to much control
Recognizing the relinquishment of control in the past
So this Christmas
Committing to making better choices in the future
I'll choose better
Expressing gratitude for the opportunity to choose better
Thanks to you
Acknowledging the positive impact of the experience
(Thank you)
Expressing gratitude for the closure provided
