Gemini In The 8th - The Night Before Lyrics

Only a couple days before Christmas
The only thing on his wish list
Was prescriptions
To clear his mind so he forgets it
So he can't block out when his big brother Sid used to hit him
His brother would say the black eye fits him
And the day after the 25th Sid
Would melt all his new toys in the oven in the kitchen
All the toys on the list he had written
He would go into his room and cry for over 120 minutes
Over the years the sadness turned into hate making him livid
He used to be timid
He just wants Sid to listen
He wants Sid to beg for forgiveness
He wants Sid to know all the pain he has bestowed in him
So he decides at the Christmas Eve party he's gonna give Sid a taste of his own medicine

The night before
They adore
The holidays they want more
Yeah they want more
Of those gifts filling up with greed
What they want is not what they need
Not what they need
They should love the time with family
Not about what they got on their list it's insanity
It's a tragedy
How rapidly
They get irritated
When they don't get something good for Christmas
It should be love not hatred

So it was Christmas Eve and he was f*cking serious
And he was ready to get revenge on his brother he was furious
The more he thought of the past the more he thought of Sid as pure evil its
Time to stand up for himself no more fearing shit
Because he was tired of Sid and tired of hearing it period
He took that switchblade and hid it in his pocket
Then looked into the mirror and he became delirious
With only one goal set in mind to put Sid into an early grave for the following years
And it became more clear that his
Family would forever hate him because of this experience
But he didn't give a shit just for the pure reason this
Is just what he needs so at the party he called Sid into the backyard
Where the forest is and Sid was curious
Sid followed him into the forest and finally he had Sid right w
Where he wanted him so he pulled out the switch blade and with the fury of
A thousand tortured souls he stabbed Sid over and over again in various
Places until he stopped breathing and he took Sid's body and carried it
To somewhere he could bury it

The night before
They adore
The holidays they want more
Yeah they want more
Of those gifts filling up with greed
What they want is not what they need
Not what they need
They should love the time with family
Not about what they got on their list it's insanity
It's a tragedy
How rapidly
They get irritated
When they don't get something good for Christmas
It should be love not hatred

The night before
They adore
The holidays they want more
Yeah they want more
Of those gifts filling up with greed
What they want is not what they need
Not what they need
They should love the time with family
Not about what they got on their list it's insanity
It's a tragedy
How rapidly
They get irritated
When they don't get something good for Christmas
It should be love not hatred

We all got a little bit of greed in us
Black Friday a day dedicated to the greed it's f*cked
People stepping over people just for inanimate objects
People don't give a f*ck about the thought of a gift only the contents
Because they can't grasp the concept
Of the holidays this is how bad it gets this is how evil it gets
How many people only care about the presents
I guess this is just how it is
But how can I give a shit
I mean we kill each other over things
Over items that have no effect on our lives or how we're seen
We all present ourselves nicely but inside we're empty see
We're like the ornaments hanging from the motherf*cking Christmas tree
