Complimentary "Halloween" Ringtone

(on the phone/spoken)
Hi. It's Mark Cohen. Is Alexi there?...Uhh, no need to
bother her. Just let her know that I'm running late 
for my appointment.  I'm at my...Yes, I'll still be there..Yes, I 
signed the contract...Thanks...

(sung)
How did we get here?
How the hell...
Pan left - close on the steeple of the church

How did i get here?
How the hell....
Christmas

Christmas Eve - last year
How could a night so frozen 
Be so scalding hot?
How can a morning this mild 
Be so raw?

Why are entire years strewn 
On the cutting room floor of memory
When single frames of one magic night
Forever flicker in close-up 
On the 3D imax of my mind

That's poetic
That's pathetic

Why did Mimi knock on Roger's door 
And Collins choose that phonebooth
Back where Angel set up his drums
Why did Maureen's equipment break down

Why am I the witness
And when I capture it on film
Will it mean that it's the end and i'm alone
