Christmas Vacation Lyrics

(Lyrics by M. Aukerman, Music by B. Stevenson)

    You were depressed, you were really messed up
    You know I understand
    But why did you not talk to me
    Why didn't you help me prepare for the nightmare

    You took a vacation into oblivion
    You were so low and I felt like I didn't know you
    Christmas vacation you took a vacation from me

    Once it ended, I mended myself
    But it keeps falling back down off the shelves in my head
    A twinge of pain now, a shudder of disgust
    As I shield my eyes from my own memory

    I knew all about your plans
    I really did understand
    But you didn't let me know
    I wasn't invited to go
    Christmas vacation you took a vacation from me

    I watched in desperation as you stumbled before my eyes
    She needs beer, she doesn't need me, I finally realized
    My anger and pain in all your fun, you couldn't recpgnize
    I stopped caring long before you started to cry
