I've got that december hope!

A scattering of lights
On the staircase to nowhere (nowhere)
There's scarcely room to move
Let alone to breathe
The walls are closing in
It makes it hard to believe
In anyone but myself
Don't just stand by and watch it happen
Fight for who you are
Before there's nothing left

You're just one of them immaterial things,
Devastating lives
Generating lies
Taking up space that doesn't belong to you
Life is what you
Make of it
On the stone steps
From the sky above
Sending reinforcements

I've got that december hope!
A scattering of lights
On the staircase to nowhere (nowhere)
There's scarcely room to move
Let alone to breathe
The walls are closing in
It makes it hard to believe
In anyone but myself
Don't just stand by and watch it happen
Fight for who you are
Before there's nothing left

[Bridge]

Sacrifices never amount
To what their worth
You keep-
Trembling in the face of justice
Silver bullets
Tendrils of fate
Reach for you
On constant repeat
You keep running!

I've got that december hope!

A scattering of lights
On the staircase to nowhere (nowhere)
There's scarcely room to move
Let alone to breathe
The walls are closing in
It makes it hard to believe
In anyone but myself
Don't just stand by and watch it happen
Fight for who you are
Before there's nothing left

Oh oh oh
Rotating round my past
Like a solar system
Let's change the route
I'm gravity!
And I say goodbye to you
Taking back everything
I wasted on you
You're just one of them immaterial things

I've got that december hope!
