The album Prone Mortal Form to this day still holds it's ground. Solid riffs throughout and intelligent lyrics to boot. Indeed this is truly a hidden treasure. Before I play the album for people I always state that "This is the best band you never heard of." So sad that more hasn't come from them in recent years. So, I've been mulling around the meaning of the song, December. I could be "way" off on this but the first thing I thought of that the song is written in narrative style about the inner struggle of a serial killer. Ted Bundy comes to mind. I believe his last victim was in the month of December. Like I said, I don't profess to know the meaning. That's just my two pennies.
The ending lyrics always made me think the song implied something having to do with the experience of being on stage. You know, that hearing the people cheer has finally given him a sense of "place", some place where he feels he belongs. It took a lot of time and getting weathered down by life, perhaps a necesity to be in the place where he is now. I never could really fit the rest of the song into this theory, though.
