Lyrics
New Year
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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…
