Spare Change

Family comes to gather
And the rest of the world seems to matter little

We eat and laugh
And play old games

We talk about everything
And the rest of the world seems to melt away

People know not what family is
Untill you are all together as one

And all your problems melt away
Because you are surounded by great people

Who will love you no matter what
(It's not like they have a choice)

But either way
They are yours to keep

And you love then just as much
And no matter how many pranks to be played

They are still there when you need them
Families are just that annoying

Spare change in your pocket
That will come in handy one day when you really need it...
