Thanksgiving Day (All Around)

All around you recognize The fire burning in my eyes The passion place I've come to find Is empty when you're gone And tired hands and tired homes Revolve around a troubled tone Sinking into the unknown It always calls your name I remember when I ruled this place Saved myself from God and grace Always something to embrace I remember when the time had come Hear it loudly as a drum The thought of it would make me numb All around the quiet streets Of neighborhoods where children meet Mothers fathers obsolete Are running with their dogs And time will tell when time knows best The timing of a thought confessed A thought that's borderline obsessed With finding out your name I remember when I knew your name Signed the check and played your game Listening is all the same I remember on Thanksgiving Day Took the car and drove away There isn't that much else to say I remember when I ruled this place Saved myself from God and grace Always something to embrace I remember when the time had come Hear it loudly as a drum The thought of it would make me numb
