12. Christmas Soul
[Bridge]
Star white, far over large heights
I make this Christmas wish to get my heart right
Night, soft melody of the choir bright
Children wait like stockings over firelight
But those without a dire sight
Anguish, heart Wrenched like a tire tight
Like a baby in a manger
Some lay awake, estranged in the danger
[Chorus]
Frost, lost within the cold
Tossed, there's Snow falling on the road
Boss, who's hottest in their clothes
Thinking they're on top, but they're bottom of the load
Cost, some believe in Santa,
some just want the magic that they can't afford
Born in the storm they wish but they're getting coal
I don't want your Christmas gifts, where is your Christmas soul?
[Verse 1]
Bored with this, commercials and the ornaments
Stored and horded and afforded because we're fortunate
What's More important than feeding those in an orphanage?
Feed the greed maybe-line like we're born with it
Ford the bridge, find a way so we can forticate
Fortify afford a place you're mortified the poor escape
Adore the taste, take some chase man we could be great
But its late, like when Santa eats from the cookie plate
Date, stuffer put the sock in
Wait, stocking, what if to suffer is their option
I'm convinced that you wince at the offer
Give a little a pinch like a grinch or a prince to a pauper
Doctor, they're frozen like their dead toes
Go to bed drunk and jealous with a red nose,
reindeer, like the same time same year
Never rearranged its insane its the same here
[Bridge]
Star white, far over large heights
I make this Christmas wish to get my heart right
Night, soft melody of the choir bright
Children wait like stockings over firelight
But those without a dire sight
Anguish, heart Wrenched like a tire tight
Like a baby in a manger
Some lay awake, estranged in the danger
[Chorus]
Frost, lost within the cold
Tossed, there's Snow falling on the road
Boss, who's hottest in their clothes
Thinking they're on top, but they're bottom of the load
Cost, some believe in Santa,
some just want the magic that they can't afford
Born in the storm they wish but they're getting coal
I don't want your Christmas gifts, where is your Christmas soul?
[Verse]
Hold, anxious until the days checked
Name the labels with the mangle of a pay check
Try to be play it safe hanging on the same deck
Fully clothed, yet Im feeling naked in a train wreck
Brain set, on spending on every damn cent
Christmas gifts man I hardly even have rent
Everybody's thinking I'm getting thin yet
I'm worried about what my children think other kids get
Still die inside when I try bad
Try to keep up with the gizmos and the iPads
Why Dad, "there's always a better one than I have"
What choice, the voice piercing like an eye stab
Buy fads, corporations are getting paid then
Cash on the mass orangatangs in a playpen
Blinded by the bitcoins and the bowties
Cold souls, Santa's bringing coal for those guys
[Bridge]
Star white, far over large heights
I make this Christmas wish to get my heart right
Night, soft melody of the choir bright
Children wait like stockings over firelight
But those without a dire sight
Anguish, heart Wrenched like a tire tight
Like a baby in a manger
Some lay awake, estranged in the danger
[Chorus]
Frost, lost within the cold
Tossed, there's Snow falling on the road
Boss, who's hottest in their clothes
Thinking they're on top, but they're bottom of the load
Cost, some believe in Santa,
some just want the magic that they can't afford
Born in the storm they wish but they're getting coal
I don't want your Christmas gifts, where is your Christmas soul?
