[Verse 1] Twisted and turned All roads lit and burned As we watched every move that we made And the time crept on slowly like miles per hour On your dashboard as we look the same As we do every year Red and green reflected lights from ear to ear [Chorus] But I bet you take all the boys here A baseball player's front lawn failures Will choke on the note inside his mailbox It reads “Don't give up, try hanging more lights from your rooftop” But our suggestions hardly ever work [Verse 2] I twist and turn through sarcastic groans While we've measured the weight of our days With souls the size of dinner plates But does he understand you like you need him too? Which one of us two has really heard the truth? [Chorus] I bet you take all the boy here A baseball player's front lawn failures Will choke on the note inside his mailbox I wrote “Don't give up, try saving a night in December” But my suggestions hardly ever work We hardly ever work [Bridge - Outro] Save my side Ten mile ride Safe, sound, and silent tonight Safe, sound, and silent enough to prove me right
