Q: What message are you trying to convey in Christmas Isn't Real?
A: the first line was trying to have a spicy good title time, with all the twists and turns baked right into the title (the title at that time i was considering to be the entire first line, up until jesus.) then when writing the rest of the song, there was a deliberate attempt to steer it back toward very genuine holiday spirit, to counteract the slightly outrageous start. then the pendulum continues to swing back and forth between the 2. as usual. that's pretty much what i always do, try to balance between fun and love i guess
