This Year

Black tar full of india ink
Dressed up like a crash
But don't know where you're going
Tonight I'm so alone
I'm gonna stay at home
I ain't going out at all
Unitl everything is alright
Alright, alright
If I had a boat I'd drift to mexico
Well, there's a place I could go
I'd get swept away
End up in some other place
When the current'd change
I'd just get swept away
On the back of your wave
Smashing all to pieces
When it breaks
On another day
On another day
This year is the year
It's going to be really somethins
I've got all my friends
In case it comes to nothing
You can always walk away
If you see me coming
I don't think about you
I don't think about you
It's been a long, long year
And it's hard to remember
It's been a long, long year
But it's getting better
All the time
It's been a long, long year
And it's hard to remember
It's been a long, long year
But it's getting better
