merry christmas

Through these rented blinds that aren't mine
staring up at the outside lights
dancing across the ceiling
remember us then?

the decorations all asleep in their boxes
a morning born of the usual silence
no suspense or unwrapping
remember us then?

Believed a dream
would be all I would need
no one told me
no one ever told me how easily
the victim ends up being the one to say sorry

All have abandoned this ship
but as the captain I'm married to resilience
I'll smile to you in a lifeboat, waving
remember me then.
