On this day please remember,
all the souls who are not here.
The moms and dads and siblings,
people that someone once held dear.
The ones who fight addiction,
and the ones who never made it out.
The ones who held the belief,
that they were never cared about.
Even though they're gone now,
we still hold them in our heart,
we remember the person that they were,
before addiction had its start.
Take but just one moment,
if you feel you can spare the time.
And have one moment of silence,
to hold those lost ones in your mind.
Its not a difficult thing to do
just give it a try.
Because even on Christmas day,
addiction will still take,
at
             least
                        SEVEN
                                                                        
                                MORE
                                              lives.
