Christmas Could Have Been Good

You're feeling down
And there's no one around
Who can see
But you keep your head up high
Little sister's running around
With candy and you don't
Wanna suffer your pride so you shut up
While your mommy's crying loud
Daddy's decorating the wall
And the Christmas trees

It's the worst of days
So you lay down in your bed

And ohh, Christmas could have been good
Ohh, Christmas could have been good
It's a shame what you have
With your family affair but still
Christmas could have been good
Ohh, Christmas could have been good
Was a dream you had
But a dream that's passed away

Your house was made
Of blood and tears
You wanna pray
From the opera
But you got no money to escape from tragedy
Bad luck girl
Your daddy's here again
He's got his anger
And way too drunk to speak
So he can understand your misery at all

It's the worst of days
And we hope that it fades away

Ohh, Christmas could have been good
Ohh, Christmas could have been good
It's a shame what you have
With your family affair but still
Christmas could have been good
Ohh, Christmas could have been good
Was a dream you had
But a dream that's passed away
