Holiday Pathos

Holiday pathos is thick in the air
I can see it every department store Santa's blank stare
The Salvation Army is stationed at every door
And I don't think that I can be merry no more
I used to think humanity was kind
Until I turned it over in my mind
You see, I was just naive
Now all I do is grieve
For the blissful ignorance I left behind
I caught the early bus today
With presents in each arm
As if generosity could cure my blues
I thought, "A quick libation never did a body any harm"
Then I found out just how much I had to lose...

They tell me I've been here before
But I'm gonna have to take them at their word
'Cos these holidays have been such a blur
And this night just took a turn for the absurd
My lady, she was right
I've been pissed-up every night
And for the next ten days, there ain't no end in sight
Now my mind is so empty
It's sad but it's true
I've forgotten more lately
Than I thought I knew
Family, endless friends in town
They're all getting more of me than they had planned
Seems like every time that I put one down
Someone drops another whiskey in my hand
And now everyone can see
I'm as useless as can be
All this Christmas cheer is catching up with me
