Give me December instead of November
I thrive the less days I've now to live in
Still I would surrender if I could remember
how to give up or how to give in
----
I'd wreck less and lose
less if I'd use
a bit of the two cents I be
I'm a reckless recluse
Unknotted a noose
This shit is a nuisance to me
----
Just give me the eve
of New Years and leave
me to devices that be
All I need is a day
to live in the way
that pays for what's priceless in me
----
Some people die
and some stay alive,
while others live on their own
The worst of the three,
but still I believe
it's better than dying alone
----
So give me December before I remember
how to tie nooses again
So far from November, I mustn't surrender
until then beyond it all ends
