Lyric discussion by xleper17 

This song is obviously a commentary on the American society today. It is neither overly liberal nor overly conservative.

I think the song is making a point that the holidays is to be a time of compassion and understanding. Yet nothing has changed. Soldiers are still over in Iraq, away from their families. The last lines are my favorite because it shows what the holidays ARE supposed to be about. Not about gifts or money, it's about taking a moment to remember your fellow man.

Even if you've never met him.
