a bouqet of dead sparklers
an illusion of rebirth
of a new continuitypromises promises
I'll make myself do it now
the fireworks was all I neededache
where did my years go?
a thousand chances gone
promises promises
to take the next onesit'll be better this year
they'll be better this year
I'll be better this year
promises promisesdon't pretend you've been reborn
don't pretend the champagne changed the world
don't pretend one tick of the clock made you a different person
don't believe itchange isn't that easy
no matter the year
the numbers don't make the change
you do
fight for itstruggle with the rest of us
struggle for yourselves
build your pieces of
blood
sweat
tears
put yourself togetherthis year
next year
fight
