Envy Lyrics

Someday maybe I will know
What's behind that window
And I will be on the inside
Looking out at the lonely night

And I will be by your side
We will hang the Christmas lights
Get lost in better times
If only in my mind

Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark
Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark

Someday maybe I will learn
The comfort of strangers
And I won't feel the winter's bite
Looking out at the lonely night

'cuz I will be by your side
We will hang the Christmas lights
Get lost in better times
If wishes came true,
I'd be in there with you

Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark
Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark

Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark
Feel my heart start bursting with envy
'cuz I'm still in the dark

Cover art for Envy lyrics by Digital Daggers

It seems like it's about not being able to be with family during Christmas and wishing you could be: "And I will be by your side/We will hang the Christmas lights".

Something bad happened that separated the distance between you and your family and so you cling to good memories instead: "Get lost in better times/ If only in my mind".

Ultimately, you're bitter/jealous because you're not apart of a family anymore, or at least not one that would welcome you back: Feel my heart start bursting with envy/'cuz I'm still in the dark".

Since you have no family to share the holiday with, you're left to be with strangers: Someday maybe I will learn/The comfort of strangers/And I won't feel the winter's bite/Looking out at the lonely night".

You hope that one day you'll be a part of a family again or have one of your own: Someday maybe I will know/What's behind that window/And I will be on the inside/Looking out at the lonely night". They won't be alone anymore.
