Another Year
Another year has almost gone
It's remaining month
Will quickly pass.
As people rush
From day to day
Some forgetting the true meaning
Of this time of year
Some never knowning
What Christmas really is.
Open your hearts as well as your eyes
For this may be the "Last Christmas"
You'll ever see.
Our world stands shattered
This land of the free
So many things
Now are out of proportion
And I am afraid they will forever be.
So light up the trees
And try to share the moments
With your loved ones
Remember they too
May see the same as you do.
Although unspoken
For what can be said
To put things back like they were
To make America what it used to be
