Songs I Write | IV

Year's Resolution

I'd never held a hand or hugged someone goodbye
I'd never been heartbroken or cried the reasons why
I'd never woken early or ever slept on time
This year'd been moving slowly, but I had the time of my life

Summer was cursed and woeful, I tried to keep in tact
Discovered parts of myself I didn't know I had
Travelled to foreign continents, at least people loved me somewhere
I fell in love last summer, this summer he wasn't there

I didn't take it to heart, I tried to move on quick
I met up with another boy but he was such a dick
From then I was more careful, I tried to keep myself cool
I knew I'd never find someone let alone someone special

During this time I lost all of my friends and mind
I know I shouldn't try for things out of reach
They all left, had no energy left in my breath
No motivation in step, but I carried on and just breathed, breathed

In autumn I met a boy, I didn't expect much
But a month later, we hung out and I fell hard
We're sort of dating now and I sort of want him to stay
But if I learned anything, next year won't be this year's mistakes

And I've now held a hand and hugged someone goodbye
I've been heartbroken and I've cried
I wake up early every morning and I sleep at night
This year'd been moving slowly, but I had the time of my life
