This Christmas card is so contrived
A mannequin looks more alive
Haven't meant a word I've written here
The page is full not one thing sincere

I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't take it
This is a time to smile, I can't fake it
Please allow me the chance now to break it down
It's not snow, it's rain coming down
And the lights are cool, but they burn out
And I can't pull off the cheer
Not this year, not this year, not this year

When I look into the mirror
No happiness is present here
I'm not supposed to whine,
I'm not supposed to cry
I try to hold it in, but not at this time

I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't take it
This is a time to smile, I can't fake it
Please allow me the chance now and break it down
It's not snow, it's rain coming down
And the lights are cool, but they burn out
And I can't pull off the cheer
Not this year, not this year, not this year

Don't know, don't know, if you can hear me
I will, I will, speak louder for you
No more whispering, are you listening
I am pleading, (I am pleading)

I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't take it
This is a time to smile, I can't fake it
Please allow me the chance now to break it down
It's not snow, it's rain coming down
And the lights are cool, but they burn out
And I can't pull off the cheer
Not this year, not this year
I can't, I can't

It's not snow, it's rain coming down
And the lights are cool, but they burn out
And I can't pull off the cheer
Not this year, not this year, not this year, not this year
