New Year's Day

The needle's in hand, But I cannot sew My heart is worn thin Like a sweater with holes It all fades New Year's Day The rain creeps in Through the crack in the door Like the guilt that seeps From my head to the floor We'll all wait for... New Year's Day I'll wake up In the same familiar way Where "I" ends, we'll begin We'll do it all over again 'cause it's just another year That slipped away from me There's a place that kills With walls that I know I've got a coffin to sleep in It's not a bed but a hole This face in the mirror Just won't go away It hides in the room Stares me right in the face And it all fades... New Year's Day I'll wake up In the same familiar way Where "I" ends, we'll begin We'll do it all over again It's just another year That slipped away It's just another year That slipped away It's just another year That slipped away It's just another year That slipped On New Year's Day I'll wake up In the same familiar way 'cause where "I" ends, we'll begin We'll do it all over again 'cause it's just another year That slipped away from me
