Grateful Song
Villagers

Arise my sweet conviction
Your time has finally come
Though your home is no place to speak of
Well, it gave you the courage to run

And I am grateful your company
And I am grateful to belong
And I am thankful for the misery
For which I stole this grateful song

Partly written out of habit
Partly written out of need
With the blind and bold ambition
For it is so this grateful seed

May I call you if I falter?
If I seek to be something that I'm not
If I forego a love for my brothers and my sisters
With a pledge of alligience to god
God of pain
The God of tragedy
The God of hatred and deceit
God of hapless, helpless agony
One that I hope we'll never meet

But we are grateful for your company
And we are grateful you belong
And we thankful are for misery
From which I stole this grateful song

Yes, we thankful are for the misery
For which I stole this grateful song
