about
Christmas is an escapist holiday for me, and more now than ever I feel like I could use a little escape.
lyrics
Snowflakes falling
The air is sharp and
And a soft gentle quiet wraps all
Cookies baking
Little ones chasin’
And the lights are dancing on the walls
Family and friends
Soft, wool sweaters that won’t irritate my skin
It’s the life they showed me
Though I know that it’s phony
I want it all
Let’s trim the tree
“Deck the Halls”
Life is crazy
And us so small
So I do all in my power
To pretend for a few hours
That the world doesn’t suck
Fire’s going
Cheeks are glowing
Fresh from the sledding outside
Turkey roasting
Eggnog toasting
No voices raised in anger tonight
Scenes like this
Are behind my fantasies of Christmas
Life’s not like this, really
But I still want that feeling
Like we’re all one
Let’s trim the tree
Deck the halls
Life is crazy
Us so small and
Who cares what you
Choose to call (it)
Or what color's
on your cup?
Just let the joy
Fill you up and
Reach out to the
Ones you love
And do all in your power
To pretend for a few hours
That the world doesn’t suck
The air is sharp and
And a soft gentle quiet wraps all
Cookies baking
Little ones chasin’
And the lights are dancing on the walls
Family and friends
Soft, wool sweaters that won’t irritate my skin
It’s the life they showed me
Though I know that it’s phony
I want it all
Let’s trim the tree
“Deck the Halls”
Life is crazy
And us so small
So I do all in my power
To pretend for a few hours
That the world doesn’t suck
Fire’s going
Cheeks are glowing
Fresh from the sledding outside
Turkey roasting
Eggnog toasting
No voices raised in anger tonight
Scenes like this
Are behind my fantasies of Christmas
Life’s not like this, really
But I still want that feeling
Like we’re all one
Let’s trim the tree
Deck the halls
Life is crazy
Us so small and
Who cares what you
Choose to call (it)
Or what color's
on your cup?
Just let the joy
Fill you up and
Reach out to the
Ones you love
And do all in your power
To pretend for a few hours
That the world doesn’t suck

about
And Then There Was One Boston, Massachusetts
And Then There Was One is Stevie Caldwell’s solo project, an outlet for a very personal, atmospheric and powerful sound which finds its niche somewhere between genres: it’s rock at its core, flowing from mid-tempo melodic grooves into crunchy angst-ridden alt rock, which she describes as much like her personality. ... more
