lyrics

I am never lonely
Adrift on Christmas eve
No one seems to recognize
The things that I believe

The streets are cold and empty
The people turn away
Perhaps they think I soiled myself
But I am still okay

I might be missing something
Someone I held so dear
Who up and left me high and dry
The darkest time of year

I see you men of wisdom
Exchanging barbs of scorn
The earth was here 5 billion years
Before the Christ was born

We are made of star dust
And that should be enough
I say it to the corner man
They always talk so tough

You fool thats an illusion
The devil made you think
Be cursed with contemplation
And disappear in drink

No I don't hate Christmas
Its nice to be alone
So heres to ya anyway
So nice to drink alone
Heres to ya, Bethlehem
Its nice to feel at home
