When I stopped believing
no shining revelation nor vision in the night
but a creeping realisation that something wasn't right
too many questions without answer and he gently fell from grace
I am orphaned by my father with none to take his place.
so I laid that final straw and like the snow-drift in the field
my heart began to slowly thaw and the awful truth revealed
that I was blissful in my blindness though misguided by my kin
to a witness of each kindness and the consequence of sin.
but now that I am older with empty skies above
the world is that much colder without his gift of love
when I stopped believing
winter came hard that day
for ever he was leaving
with reindeer to guide his sleigh.
