We are thankful to be alive
Through all these years we survive
There is no place for us to hide
Though the tears we harbor inside
Loss and longing does abound
Hurting grips us, without sound
This, the season to atone
Still to find ourselves alone
To be "Thankful", that's the word
That I find to be absurd
People starving everywhere
People dying, few who care
Another year, a little older
Maybe time has made us colder
Time to stand, and yell stop
Before the world bleeds it's last drop
Population just keeps growing
Our technology is downloading
Sedated minds are lost in time
A legacy they leave behind
The coming of a brand new age
So many filled with hate and rage
Filled with sadness and with sorrow
Blackened souls down to the marrow
Time for us to take control
Or is complacency the toll
I am thankful to be alive
Very glad that I survive
There is one thing I can not hide
I really need To take a ride
