INTRO [piano part]

Camera scans over a busy street on a Christmas Eve, with the decors and lights on. Cam probes a little over the people�s merry-making, and zooms once in a while on the Santa decorations and the lanterns found along the way. It�s drizzling and it�s a bit windy. Then, the cam makes its way on an apartment, isolated from the others and without any Christmas decor. Then, zoom on the inside.

STANZAS [Chester]

Inside the bedroom, full of cobwebs, dust and scattered papers [the rooms as if been trashed by him] He sits on a corner, with blankets wrapped around him [as if he�s shivering]

�This is my December�

And with the �slamming door� sound, the screen shows dancing shadows and then it bangs the door close [the shadows are probably his family�s who left him]

�This is my time of the year�

And the screen�s blurred and in the middle, some flickering lights.

�This is my December� And a flash of light passes through the windows as a train passes by outside. He stares down

�This is all so clear��

Chester�s feet shown walking towards the open window..

�This is my December�

And the cam will show the scene outside: A train just passed by, overcastted skies, with rolls of thunder and crashes of lightning present.

�This is my snow-covered home� He looks down, the cam is at his side [Chester will be side-viewed]

�This is my December� This is me alone� Upon saying �And I�, his face will slowly fade away.

PRE-CHORUS [Mike]

Mike�s face will slowly appear in. The cam�s below him [worm�s perspective, or the camera�s below his chin�] His background is the shimmering Christmas lights. He�s outside the streets.

�Just wish that I didn�t feel like there was something I missed�

He sighs and looks down, as if regretting something

�Take back all the things I said to make you feel like that�

And on the left part of the screen, although it�s not that clear, [shadowy figures] there�s the re-enactment of Mike having a fight with his family, which ended up with him walking away, his mother sobbing, and his father and brother looking at him sternly. And Mike�s going out of their house.

�Just wish that I didn�t feel like there was something I missedTake back all the things that I said to you..� and he walks away from the cam.[he continues singing while the re-enactment�s playing on the foreground, left-side of the screen.]

CHORUS

�And I give it all away�

Back on Chester, he takes his coat out of the closet.

�Just to have somewhere to go to�

He looks outside once more.

�Give it all away�

He wears the coat.

�To have someone to come home to.�

He walks out and closes the door.

: The background fading slowly, and the next scene comes in.

THIRD STANZA [subway]

Empty train station, with the decors and lights still on.On the sidewalk [the raised platforms beside the train�s parking], there�s 2 paths, one leading to a curb to the exit, and the other�s going to the parked train. [opposite directions] Chester�s walking on the former ; Mike�s walking on the latter.

The former sings: �This is my December�These are my snow-covered dreams��

Then, they are side by side [cam�s getting the side view] and they sings the line,

�This is me pretending� with Mike as the second voice.

Chester�s looking down, while Mike�s looking forward to his path. Chester looks back to Mike�s direction while Mike�s not paying attention when he sings, �This is all I need��

: Cam�s focusing on Chester front view and upon singing �And I�, his background changes.

PRE-CHORUS: [Chester walking on the busy street]

It was a bit snowing, of course with the lights still on. Chester sings only his parts. [And I] He�s walking, and on his near left, almost beside his shoulder, he sees Rob, carrying huge gift boxes and being pulled by his nieces and nephews.

�And I��

Chester bumps him, and his cargo falls. Rob bents down, picks it up, and looked at Chester disapprovingly. But Chester continued walking as if nothing happened.

�And I�

And on the far right, just in front of a coffee shop, he sees Joe, giving some children passer-bys presents, and even plays with them. He high-fives a kid and stops upon seeing Chester [cam�s far view of Joe] .

�And I�

He follows Chester with his gaze. [Cam�s just beside Joe, following Chester as he walks. Or Joe�s point of view over Chester] Cam�s back on Chester, who looks so perplexed and discouraged.

: Upon singing the last �And I�, Mike�s face replaces Chester�s as the background changes.

CHORUS [Mike inside the train]

Camera takes the top view of a scene inside the train, with Mike at the center. The people in here are happy, and almost all have their companions. Mike looks uncomfortable because he�s the only one in there who had no companion and is sad.

�Give it all away, Just to have somewhere to go to�

He looks sideward at his left and sees Brad with his family having a gay conversation.

�Give it all away�

He looks at his front and sees Phoenix with a little girl slumped on his shoulder [the girl is probably his girlfriend�or something similar, and the girl�s sleeping]. Cam�s zooming a little on the two.

�To have someone to come home to� Cam back to Mike, he sighs softly and looks at the window. [Lights flickering everywhere]

: Scene blurred, and Chester�s back to view.

FOURTH STANZA [Chester at his bedroom]

He�s still sitting at the dark corner. He looks pale and frightened [because his family might not come back to celebrate the Christmas Eve with him]. He shivers as he sings:

�This is my December�This is my time of the year��

The cam focuses on a clock nearby �11:57 P.M�

�This is my December�� He looks at the door and half-shouted: �This is all so clear�

To his surprise, the door flew open and he was shocked�

CHORUS [Mike]

Mike stepped down from the bus. [Cam�s showing the view of his house that looked so quiet] He�s half-expecting that his family will not welcome him anymore. But the door opened and his mother came rushing to him. She was teary-eyed. She hugs him, and Mike does the same. [Cam focuses on the sky and the dropping snowflakes] His brother and father follows soon enough and they shakes each other�s hands. Mike was teary-eyed but later, he begins to smile.

[Chester] He hugs his wife an kisses his child [It�s just a baby] Then he smiles and hugs his wife once more. Then, they went out of the room.

OUTRO [Piano and violin(?)]

The camera [now colored] zoomed out of Chester�s house, and back to the busy streets that now has turned silent and still, with the lights and decorations still lit up.
