New Year

First day of new year, nothing’s changed
Still feeling broken, still want the same
First day of new year, brush off the past
Farewell ambition, you never last

Hide lovers lost behind us
Hide lessons we failed to learn
Hide those that tried to mould us
And change us for the worse

But you can’t cover over holes
You can’t burrow deeper down
Yeah you’re going to be somebody
Yeah you’re going to be somebody
Yeah you’re going to be somebody

What brisk midwinter, solstice gone
Promise of rebirth, what fractured song!
Can’t flee from bygones, no shaking off the truth
Just the first understanding, of what we had to lose

But you can’t cover over holes
You can’t burrow deeper down
Yeah you’re going to be somebody
Yeah you’re going to be somebody
Yeah you’re going to be somebody…
