lyrics

All I want for Xmas is a rest (Is it just another day?)

The wait is taking over
all my time
There’s always too much to do
It’s late, there’s people over
it’s wasting time
There’s always too much to do

I don’t mind this time of year
But my interest seems to fate
Is it only another day?
I don’t feel the same old cheers
It doesn’t mean the same
Is it only another day? Is it only another day?

The cold, it’s freezing over
It never ends
It just gets harder for you
Back when I was younger
I think I cared
I didn’t have much to do

Repeat chorus

Are you sure the cost is worth it?
Would you have it another way?
But I don’t think the joy has gone
I know it’s never really gone

Songs From Another Life
by The Boys With The Perpetual Nervousness

The indie pop on Songs From Another Life sounds confident yet delicate, and the strummy and jangly guitars makes me long for spring. Some songs sound like straight up Teenage Fanclub worship, but in a good way. Fans of The Byrds and Big Star will probably dig this as well. Niek || Add To Wantlist
