Just Another 25th

Just Another 25th

They say it comes... Once a year...
So why do we suffer... Three months of Xmas fear...
Expectations... For the annual anti-climax...
More debt and presents to forget... Might as well get drunk and fat...Β 

If you can... Only if you can...

Save yourself for Turkey... When you can't afford... Beans on toast... Tangled in tinsel... And 20 best off's... Might as well forget the host...

So what's worth celebrating...Β 
When you're on your own...
It's just another 25th...Β 
Alone...
What's worth celebrating... When you're on your own...
It's just another 25th...
Just another 25th...
Just another 25th alone...

Lights will flicker... In the eyes of those who care...
While your brain absconds and gets absorbed... Into the T.V.'s glare...Β 
So why are we all meant to...
Laugh and dance and sing...
Just pass another 'Quality Street'...Β 
And wait... For the Midnight Bells to ring...

So what's worth celebrating...Β 
When you're on your own...
It's just another 25th... Alone...
What's worth celebrating...Β 
When you're on your own...
It's just another 25th...
Just another 25th...
Just another 25th alone...

So what's worth celebrating...Β 
When you're on your own...
It's just another 25th... Alone...
What's worth celebrating...Β 
When you're on your own...
It's just another 25th...
Just another 25th...
Just another 25th alone...

there isΒ  one who sticks closer than a brother the lord jesus christ he promises to never fail nor forsake you he also promises to be with us always have a very merry christmas and a happy new year linda j wright here's a little thing i do when i feel all alone i wait for the moonlight and stars and have a one to one conversation with God seek ye first the kingdom of heaven your right the number 25 is just aΒ  day unless you spend it with someone why not spend it with God he really cares for us another thing i do to overcome loneliness is to sing it frees the mind and soul and lastly a little bibleΒ 
scripture goes like this john 3:16 forΒ  god so loved the world he gave his only begotten sonΒ 
that whomsoever believeth on him should not perish but have everlasting
in other words he paid the price for our loneliness i like the visual as well very creativeΒ 
so don't forget to keep looking up.

Hey thanks POETESSDARKLY...
Much appreciated!!!

My attempt of an alternative Christmas song, akin to the likes of 'The Pogues' song 'Fairytale Of New York'...

I tried to sum up what it does feel like to be on your own when we're forced fed the idea of happiness and jollity and everything in life changes because of Christmas! Bah humbug eh?Haha

I do actually like Christmas, and although some of it was drawn from personal experience, it was interesting putting myself in the 'Scrooge' mindset, as long as it took to write the song anyway!

All the best and thanks again ! X
