[Verse 1 – The Forest] Walking through the quiet wilderness, Golden leaves beneath my shoes. Thinking ’bout the things I’ve lost, Trying to make some kind of truce. Sky was glowing, air was trembling, Felt like change was coming soon… Till a rustle in the shadows Sounded louder than the moon. [Chorus] ’Cause somehow… it was Thanksgiving. Didn’t see the signs at all. One moment I was deep in nature — Next moment I heard that turkey call. Life loves to twist the meaning, Right when you think you’ve changed… Yeah somehow… it was Thanksgiving, And everything got strange. [Verse 2 – The City] Neon colors on the pavement, People drifting in a haze. I was chasing my reflection In the windows of the subway. Thought I saw a kind of answer In the clouds above the street… Till a giant turkey blimp went sideways And the crowd ran from the heat. [Chorus] ’Cause somehow… it was Thanksgiving. Didn’t see the signs at all. One moment I was lost in daydreams — Next moment I saw that blimp start to fall. Life loves to shift direction, Right when the scene looks staged… Yeah somehow… it was Thanksgiving, And everything got strange. [Verse 3 – The Table] Later on I found myself inside, Warm light dancing on the walls. Talking soft about the future, Feeling grateful after all. Then the kitchen turned to chaos — Smoke and shouting everywhere… Someone said “The dog ate everything!” And stuffing filled the air. [Final Chorus] ’Cause somehow… it was Thanksgiving. Didn’t see the signs at all. One moment we were being honest — Next moment gravy hit the wall. Life loves to trip your balance, Right when the moment’s arranged… Yeah somehow… it was Thanksgiving, And everything got strange.
