I decide when it’s Christmas

Verse 1 Kill the lights, lock the door You don’t get choices anymore Snow outside, dead quiet street Inside you’re trembling at my feet You dressed up brave, talked real slick All year long, playing innocent Now your breath gives you away I step close and say your name Pre-Chorus Don’t move. Don’t speak. You look better when you’re weak. Chorus I decide when it’s Christmas I decide when you break You been begging with your eyes Every rule you wanna shake Silent night? Not tonight I don’t care who’s listening Hands behind you, eyes on me You don’t come till I say when Verse 2 Tree lights flashing like a warning You should’ve known where this was going Mistletoe like a loaded gun You started this — now I’m done Wrapping paper, glass of red I tilt your chin, mess with your head Say you’re good — I say “prove it” You don’t argue, you just do it Pre-Chorus Hold still. That sound you make? That’s permission — don’t mistake it. Chorus I decide when it’s Christmas I decide how you fall You like it rough, you like it slow You like it when I take it all Bells ring, heart pounds You forgot how to breathe You wanted dark, you wanted worse Now stay right there for me Bridge No saints, no saviors, no disguise Just want and power in your eyes You shake when I lean in close I don’t rush — I take control Final Chorus I decide when it’s Christmas When the night turns cruel and sweet On your knees by the tree light Learning patience at my feet If this ruins you, good You’ll remember what I said Merry Christmas — now behave This doesn’t end when Santa’s dead
