This is my December, this is my time of the year
This is my December, this is all so clear

This is my December, this is my snow-covered home
This is my December, this is me alone

And I give it all away, just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away, just to have someone to come home to

This is my December, these are my snow-covered trees
This is me pretending, this is all I need

And I give it all away, just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away, to have someone to come home to

This is my December, this is my time of the year
This is my December, this is all so clear

Give it all away, just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away, to have someone to come home to

Give it all away, just to have somewhere to go to
Give it all away, to have someone to come home to

Why does it feel like night today?
Something in here's not right today
Why am I so uptight today?
Paranoia's all I got left
I don't know what stressed me first
Or how the pressure was fed
But I know just what it feels like
To have a voice in the back of my head
It's like a face that I hold inside
A face that awakes when I close my eyes
A face that watches everytime I lie
A face that laughs everytime I fall
And watches everything
So, know that when it's time to sink or swim
That the face inside is hearing me
Right underneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid looking over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like a face inside that's right beneath my skin

Hey, yo
Here we go again with the pain I feel isn't real
But in my mind, I find myself in places with names but not faces
My memory races at speeds
Hundred degrees
My soul bleeds, devil must've planted the seed
Now it feels like my back's against the wall
I'm taking the fall
Whenever I call nobody's responding at all
But I don't know who I can trust
The screaming my name
I need somebody to help me out of the frame
All I'm trying to do is just master me
All I want to do is smoke a blast-to-beat
But something keeps talking to me
Consciously, responsibly, keeps haunting me from dusk 'til dawn
Everything has something for you
That voice inside of your head got you projecting paranoia
Cold sweat shining on your face
Exposing your purpose
And if I ripped off your skin I'd probably find another person
There's nothing worse than trying to bring yourself on back from the dead
So I advise you: listen to that voice in the back of your head

It's like I'm paranoid looking over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like a face inside that's right beneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid looking over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like a face inside that's right beneath my skin

The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin
The face inside is right beneath your skin

The sun goes down
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
It's like I'm paranoid
I feel the light betray me
The sun goes down
Can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like the face inside is right beneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid looking over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like a face inside that's right beneath my skin

It's like I'm paranoid looking over my back
It's like a whirlwind inside of my head
It's like I can't stop what I'm hearing within
It's like a face inside that's right beneath my skin

I wanna be in another place

I hate when you say you don't understand

I wanna be in the energy

Not with the enemy

A place for my head...


I watch how the moon sits in the sky in the dark night

Shining with the light from the sun

But sun doesn't give light to the moon assuming

The moon's going to owe it one

It makes me think of how you act to me you do

Favors and then rapidly you just

Turn around and start asking me about

Things you want back from me

I'm sick of the tension

Sick of the hunger

Sick of you acting like I owe you this

Find another place to feed your greed

While I find a place to rest



I want to be in another place

I hate when you say you don't understand

(You'll see it's not meant to be)

I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy

A place for my head



Maybe someday I'll be just like you and

Step on people like you do

And run away all the people I thought I knew

I remember back then who you were

You used to be calm used to be strong

Used to be generous but you should've known that you'd

Wear out your welcome now you see

How quiet it is all alone I'm so

Sick of the tension sick of the hunger

Sick of you acting like I owe you this

Find another place to feed your greed

While I find a place to rest I'm so

Sick of the tension sick of the hunger

Sick of you acting like I owe you this

Find another place to feed your greed

While I find a place to rest



I want to be in another place

I hate when you say you don't understand

(You'll see it's not meant to be)

I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy

A place for my head



We're all gonna be crushed when it all apart

Ruin another high low

Hoping that you won't know the strain it puts to me

See what you've done, and consequently

I’ve run away, Just hidden again

Within the boundaries of the nameless

Don’t mean to say this, but your dragging me down

Lost in the chaos, being tossed around

Singing within to myself

Head full of hectic

Hope that someday I’ll regret this

Everything's the wrong place, the wrong time

Addict to the panic, in my confines

Singing within to myself

Head full of hectic

Hope that someday I’ll regret this

Everything's the wrong place, the wrong time

Addict to the panic, in my confines



I wanna live in another place

Where no one can say that I live for them

(You’ll see it’s not meant to be for me)

I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy

A place for my head



I wanna, I wanna, I wanna...



Two, Two, Three, Three, Yo, Yo, Yo

Keep me in the john to keep me calm

You and your mom keep on dram

Used to be a team, passed that baton

But you flopped that bomb when you dropped that bomb

Take it the john your Babylon

Flush down with the sound that you carry on

I don't really give a damn

You pissed on my lawn

Took a dump like a punk

Now the battle's on

So sick of you stressing

Sick of you fessing

Sick of you acting like I owe you some

Find another place to feed your face

If you don't we gonna bump get it up get crunk

Sick of you stressing

Sick of you fessing

Sick of you acting like I owe you some

Find another place to feed your face

If you don't we gonna bump get it up get crunk



Riding’ with a head full of bodies of red

And when I said its still stuck in my head, but mislead

Thinking the things I do would make you never wanna come back

Running’ on thumb tacks, you could never run from that

Being trapped in this view, something that I never wanted to do

Went through all you’ve got to see, to where I want to be

Is over the pen again, letting it out of me

In the center of the day in the dream

Seeing all my thoughts getting lost in between

Realize want not the weight of the scene

From the killing of the killer, with a head full of screams



I wanna live in another place

Where no one can say that I live for them

(You’ll see it’s not meant to be for me)

I wanna be in the energy, not with the enemy

A place for my head



You try to take the best of me

Go away

You try to take the best of me

Go away

You try to take the best of me

Go away

You try to take the best of me

GO AWAY



You try to take the best of me

You try to take the best of me

Go away

You try to take the best of me

You try to take the best of me

GO...



YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME

GO AWAY

YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME

GO AWAY

YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME

GO AWAY

YOU TRY TO TAKE THE BEST OF ME

GO AWAY



I want to be in another place

I hate when you say you don't understand

(You'll see it's not meant to be)

I want to be in the energy, not with the enemy

A place for my head
