Lyrics

[Intro]
[strummed acoustic guitar, clean electric guitar lead]
[Verse 1]
[male vocals enter]
Shimmer and shakes, there's nothing to take
You need a handful of small friends
All the posters told me it was over
I couldn't tell you the way I feel
No one's home and everyone's cold
And I'm not sure about the science
I'm just waking up on another sweet day
And I hate that I don't know
[Chorus]
[full band enters, driving rhythm]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 2]
[acoustic guitar continues, electric guitar arpeggios]
Said it was Christmas, man
Get it all start over again
Christmas, oh
Christmas, oh
[Chorus]
[increased intensity, tambourine enters]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 3]
[raspy vocal delivery]
I got birdies, early squirrelies
People around you don't know
Showed up later and waited for caters
But nobody knows the result
I'm not sure if all this matters
Something mattered to me
[Bridge]
[vocal intensity increases, electric guitar distortion]
Oh, you don't know anymore
Sometimes you get it wrong again
Oh, you don't know anymore
Sometimes you open the wrong right door
The wrong right door
[Outro]
[acoustic guitar strumming, melodic electric guitar]
Sit with me now and don't tell me why
Sit with me now and don't tell me why
Sit with me now and I need to climb
No one's out there, check, oh
No one's out there to feel so small
No one's out there, oh
Just a soul, send them a world
Waiting for all
No one's out there
