This song is my everything.

“Honey sometimes everything you want is just a wildfire You’re never ‘sposed to make it out alive Half sick sleeping through the mystery Caught a bad trip but everyone is with me— And I can’t stand myself, hardly anybody else

My nomination for xmas song of the year goes to Phosphorescent’s “Christmas Down Under”
