A Damper on The Modern Christmas
The meaning of Christmas marred and strangled to death
While each one of us replace Christ with an X
The truth wrapped up in so many lies and boxes
Just to cover our fear that cradles us like a blanket
So scared of responsibility
Each year raping our integrity
Hide your guilt and your shame
You still know you're the one to blame
A Saviour born into the world to deny the grave
Hide it and deny it, but you're still a slave
Because you can only run for so long
Once the truth is unmasked you're over and gone
All we did wrong, just to make ourselves right in our eyes
Still denying Christ as He hangs on a cross for you and I
Died and buried, rose and lives forever more
Just for you to be washed clean and made pure
(Still) So scared to have to pay for all we have done
Deny the fact He was ever born, deny the Son
Thats what the true meaning of Christmas means to me
Just a holiday to cover up and protect all that is empty
You can keep your pathetic pity for a dime
You're all still the murderers of Christmas time.
