Broken Ornaments lyrics

[Verse 1]
Two winters ago, we started it all
Under string lights and snowfall
You were magic, you were new
Now my mind is haunted by you
Last year, it all came crashing down
Every carol was a goodbye sound
You broke the promise to set me free
Now I’m here again, me and the tree

[Chorus]
Broken ornaments on the floor
Like my heart, I can’t take any more
Two Christmases and I’m still not fine
You’re not here, and you’re not mine
Lights are dim, and the silence grows
I’m shattering everything to let you go

[Verse 2]
I know you’re somewhere far tonight
Maybe under the same cold winter sky
But I bet you’re sitting there alone, too
Maybe your messy room’s rent is due
All these memories can do is agonize
Every snowfall is of enormous size
This tree can’t hold the weight of us
So I tear it down, turning it to dust
[Chorus]
Broken ornaments on the floor
Like my heart, I can’t take any more
Two Christmases and I’m still not fine
You’re not here, and you’re not mine
Lights are dim, and the silence grows
I’m shattering everything to let you go

[Bridge]
The garlands fall, the lights burn out
I tear it apart just to drown you out
The cracks in the glass are sharp and clear
Just like the words you said last year
I’m barely standing here, I’m on my own
If you ever think of me, please just don’t

[Breakdown]
Broken ornaments, a cranberry tea
This December is yet another casualty
Two Christmases that I can’t trade
I still keep breaking what we made
The tree is bare, and the past still shows
And I’m shattering everything to let you go

[Chorus]
Broken ornaments on the floor
Like my heart, I can’t take any more
Two Christmases and I’m still not fine
You’re not here, and you’re not mine
Lights are dim, and the silence grows
I’m shattering everything to let you go
