about

“Christmas is Over” paints a picture of post-holiday emptiness.

The digital only single is the debut of a series of singles in collaboration with fellow West Virginia artist and producer Chance McCoy.


Singer Melissa Wright shares:

"I wrote the song a few years ago after the holiday season was over. I was left sitting alone with an empty room, empty boxes, and no friends and family around. I wanted to paint the drop from joy to sadness that happens so quickly after celebrations. It's all over now, it's never coming back in the same way ever again."

Mink's Miracle Medicine is a songwriting collaboration between Melissa Wright and Daniel Zezeski, who formed the project in 2013. They have released three full-length albums under the name: House of Candles (2017), Pyramid Theories (2018), and Thumbs Up Angel (2020).

lyrics

Christmas is over
Letters are torn
Paper is open
Scarf has been worn

Still I'm a dancer
Wrapped up in the Yule
Ribbons of satin
And skirts are all made up of tulle

I'm sorry to start that fight
Didn't feel like myself that night
Something in the air just wasn't right
But it might have been that rain in December

Days getting shorter
Your hair's getting long
Sweaters are threadbare
And money's all gone

So I'd take an answer
From science or god
Some master whose voice filled the chamber
With runs and roulades

I'm not shy about wanting snow
Kitchen's clean and the windows aglow
All tied up with no where to go
It's my dream and I'll hold it forever
