This is my December
This is my time of the year
This is my December
This is all so clear

This is my December
This is my snow-covered home
This is my December
This is me alone

And I (just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed)
And I (take back all the things I said to make you feel like that)
And I (just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed)
And I (take back all the things that I said to you)

And I'd give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

This is my December
These are my snow-covered trees
This is me pretending
This is all I need

And I (just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed)
And I (take back all the things I said to make you feel like that)
And I (just wish that I didn't feel like there was something I missed)
And I (take back all the things that I said to you)

And I'd give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

This is my December
This is my time of the year
This is my December
This is all so clear

Give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

Give it all away
Just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away
To have someone to come home to

    I think that this song describes the way that you were ignorant (just wish that i didn't feel like there was something I missed) or said something wrong (obviously) because that person, in spite of all of their warmth, is nothing but a cold and heartless being (My December), and they are asking the other person for forgiveness... Sound Good? My AIM Sn is Green Clad Killa

    this song is wicked...to me the song is about having something at the end of your day that you can come home to and forget about all the trials of day to day life... this is arguably my fav song on the reanimation album

    I think that the My Dsmbr on reanimation is the best because its slower than da others and they can get more of da effect out by goin slow.

    I have to say, this song hit me the hardest of all the songs on Linkin Park's three cds. I love every song by them, and I have my favorites, but this was the first song to really get to me with it's message. I love it. I've felt the way the lyrics describe, and can totally relate.

Gentle Hour
Yo La Tengo
This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version. Great version of a great song,

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
