December

Lydia

So it was four or five of everything, as you are no good.
I saw it through the frame and through my face.
Covering my eyes, because we are nothing,
And never quite the same a black and white summer.
With photographs that showed our rails and razorblades.
I think it cured my pain, ha, again and again and again.

Promise you will go down my neck,
Just like those pills and your cigarette.

So as my fingers curl, I move my lips just so you won't have to.
Damnit you clever girl, your style is keeping us from sleep.
It's one more and I'm free, oh we've been so lucky,
Yeah we've been so likely to lose.
So give in, let's give in.

It's all suicide if I hide.
Because you are everywhere I look and in my skin.
I taste your neck and lips just from breathing in.
Let's call it off kid.
But through the window you reach for the cold.
But the door is so much closer,
And the sun has sold itself to the land and all over my skin.
No! No! Stop it, stop him.

So what, so what, we all were all afraid.
So this I swear I know, it's not the chemicals.
You are off my mind, I finally got away.
You said it's such a life to remember,
So come on, and we'll sleep away December, finally saw it's face.
It was you, bringing your white company.
Bringing the night so it seemed.
And we will never sleep again.
So as you walk to the door,
And yell I'm never coming back here.
It's over we are still nothing.

    Leighton is using a girl to metaphorically explain a recovering drug addiction... the part about the rails and razorblades and the lack of sleep and so on....tells me its probably a cocaine addiction. -It was four or five of everything. -photographs that showed our rails and razorblades. I think it cured my pain. -your style is keeping us from sleep. -I taste your neck and lips just from breathing in.... Heres the recovery part...... So what, so what, we all were all afraid. So this I swear I know, it's not the chemicals. You are off my mind, I finally got away. You said it's such a life to remember, so come on, and we'll sleep away Decemeber. It was you, bringing your white company. Bringing the night so it seemed. And we will never sleep again. So as you walk through the door, and yell I'm never coming back here. It's over we are still nothing.

    And 'This December, It's One More And I'm Free' refers to having one more drug hit before you finally recover?

    Personally this is my favorite song on the entire album, the bridge and breakdown are so moving its amazing. But as far as what i think it means, Christopher85 has a point. Its obviously about some sort of addiction I think, whether its with drugs, lifestlye or something, but i think its about a girl. Haha so cliche to be about a girl but it seems that he is struggling to get over her because of all the memories, pictures and feeling.
