Anna Writer - Christmas It Be

Thick snow falls from the sky,
But no one cries for the man who did die.
He is forgotten, it is too sad to see,
After all, Christmas it be.

Let the bells ring and the carollers sing!
Deck the halls and flock the malls.
Load your arms with gifts and lift;
The spirits of your fellow man!
Don't dare think of how it all began…

Occupy your mind with thoughts of meats and sweets!
Of presents yet to come,
Sweet plums and noisy drums,
Anything to drown out the screaming in your mind,
You try and find silence and prey for some kind of kindness.
You look to mankind, him, her and me;
After all, Christmas it be.

Forget your woes when water froze,
He will no longer bear upon your mind
You've left his memory long behind.
He is forgotten, it is too sad to see,
After all, Christmas it be.
