100 Resolutions

Where have I been all your life?
Sitting on fences
A novocaine for all the senses
Another year will pass us by
Making sense of nothing in defense of something
I laughed too late and dug myself into a grave
This year I'll try not to think too much
This year I'll try to stand up for myself
This year I'll live like I've never lived before
This is my year for sure
Another stupid clumsy story
More accidental aspirations
Another explosion of silence
I think I'm going deaf
Or maybe I'm just hearing less
This year I'll try to listen to myself
I wonder where you'll be bringing in the new year
As midnight clocks are singing good chance I'll be slobbering somewhere
Probably pass out wasted and sleep until the smoke clears
Vague memories of midnight flash in time to morning sunlight
Wake up knowing you'll never be there
I've got 100 resolutions
But I've got no solutions
I've got one song, I write 100 ties
And only a dozen or so rhymes
This year I'll try not to drink so much
This year I'll try to stand up straight
This year let's live like we've never lived before
This is our year for sure
