Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
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 dreams
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 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
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

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction

Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
First of all, I'd like to say this is a phenomenal song written by talented artists, known as Linkin Park.
To me, "My December" is a metaphor. This song screams solitude. Loneliness. It's almost to a point of desperation, hence, "...give it all away, just to have someone to go to..." He's saying having ANYONE is better than this hollow, lonely feeling. It's better to share happiness with someone than to be alone with it.
"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"
^^This conveys regret, and feeling incomplete after a fight or argument despite winning (or not), because at the end of the day, something is still missing. That's enough to leave one regretting previous actions.
Personally, this song strikes a sentiment within me. It brings me back to a dark time in my life. I still feel this way: lonely.
Again, great song & that's my two cents.
"My December" is a metaphor for a cold, lonely time in this person's life -- also the end of something, most likely a relationship. December is the coldest month, and the end of the year which leaves you reflecting on the past year, the regrets, mistakes, happy times...
There is some really depressing scenes in the video the real question is what really happened. Now if I remember watching the video carefully last night I do believe it was a rather undesirable success suicide crash that the vehicle smashed with the school bus. And so later on a funeral was held. That's what I saw in the video<br /> What did you see in the video?
This song sends shivers down my spine and brings tears to my eyes... Cliche as that is, it does... To me, it means that someone just broke up with him, for whatever reason, and he wishes he could take back whatever made her feel that way... and that she was still there for him..
one of my favorites
this songs about how the money u made, the success u had, doesnt matter when it all comes down to it. If u dont have someone in ur life that u love, u dont have anything. This is a side message in In the End.
What can I say? Linkin park has done it again!!! I've been obsess with this song the first time I heard it played. What struck me most about "My December" were its simple yet evocative lyrics. This song generates a powerful harmonic resonance with a sense of horizontal stream and an emotional melodic core produce by Chester and Mike. This song is incredible.....not to mention LINKIN PARK themselves!
Dam, this song kicks ass!!!
Hey, they can really do something else! This is a great song!
shows that linkin park arent trying to capitalize on one style of music that theyre good at. good song.. simple.. but hard hitting in its own way. december for me is usually a time of reflections.. over the past year.. and the cold kind of clears ur mind to all of the prejudices u harboured.. and its filled with regrets.. but also another chance.. anther year
It is filled with regrets like bo0yaa said, it also expirences loss which a lot of people like hearing when they are also expirencing loss because it makes listeners feel that they're not alone.
i only have one thing to say about this...O-BABY!!! i absolutely LOVE linkin park with a burning passion, and i have to say this is their BEST song yet!!! it is just so great in its own way and sends a different vibe to everyone...its just great!
