[00:13.989]I wasn’t born in candlelight,
[00:20.545]No choir sang my name.
[00:23.699]I came from ash and chimney smoke,
[00:27.596]A place marked by the flame.
[00:30.753]
[00:31.345]They say my story was redrawn,
[00:34.615]My darker edges changed,
[00:37.949]To make a shadow kindly,
[00:41.268]To make a fear feel strange.
[00:45.678]
[00:46.203]I don’t deny where I began,
[00:49.669]The myths that I recall.
[00:52.767]But all I ever learned to do,
[00:56.678]Was give, and never ask at all.
[01:00.203]
[01:00.554]I wear a joy I borrowed,
[01:04.133]A suit stitched out of cheer,
[01:07.624]I carry all the winter’s cold,
[01:10.956]Just to make your night feel near.
[01:14.063]
[01:14.403]Merry Christmas, my dear,
[01:17.628]May your sky be soft and clear.
[01:21.481]If love is only meant to give,
[01:23.914]Then I’m still standing here.
[01:27.247]
[01:28.016]Merry Christmas, my light,
[01:31.659]May your world be warm and bright.
[01:35.682]Even if I fade by dawn,
[01:38.073]You were worth the night.
[01:43.973]
[01:45.597]I leave the gifts beneath your tree,
[01:48.842]And vanish like a ghost.
[01:51.958]You’ll never ask who paid the price,
[01:55.867]Or what it cost the most.
[01:59.778]
[02:00.058]I know I’m just a seasonal belief,
[02:02.920]To help the children sleep,
[02:05.890]A once-a-year convenience,
[02:09.564]You never promise to keep.
[02:14.355]
[02:14.506]But if my hands were ever real,
[02:17.682]If one touch ever stayed—
[02:21.029]Then every lie they told of me,
[02:24.831]Was a price I gladly paid.
[02:28.465]
[02:28.608]Merry Christmas, my dear,
[02:31.746]May your future lose its fear.
[02:35.585]If happiness is all you need,
[02:38.130]Then take it—I’m sincere.
[02:42.224]
[02:42.580]Merry Christmas, my light,
[02:46.009]Go be loved in someone’s sight.
[02:49.773]I don’t need a gift in return,
[02:52.398]Just let your life feel right.
[02:56.758]
[02:57.148]If someday you remember me,
[03:00.235]I hope it’s not with doubt or fear.
[03:03.950]Just think of days you laughed a little more,
[03:07.309]And know that I was there.
[03:10.921]
[03:11.324]Because I do the same with you,
[03:14.310]My chest still floods, my eyes still burn.
[03:17.780]Not from regret, not from the pain—
[03:21.414]But from the love that learned to turn.
[03:28.604]
[03:28.998]Merry Christmas, always you,
[03:32.174]Through every ordinary day too.
[03:35.525]If joy forgets the one who gave,
[03:38.394]That’s okay… I knew.
[03:42.648]
[03:42.960]Merry Christmas, my dear,
[03:46.083]I was never meant to stay.
[03:49.775]I only came to love you once—
[03:52.216]And gently fade away.
[03:57.221]
[03:58.351]Merry Christmas…
[04:03.445]Be happy…
[04:07.221]Always.
