[Verse 1]
The cold air bites at uncovered skin
And there seems to be only me in the space I'm living in
The street lights flicker as the cars drive by
The reality of all of this is wrapped in a lie
The lack of feelings that exist in your eyes
It's nothing to worry about
[Chorus]
Because the stars are all ablaze tonight
And the emptiness of everything fills the sky
With snow on the ground
Nothing makes a sound
I'm alone on New Year's Day
[Verse 2]
An annual celebration of the times ahead
A newly-found reminder of the things that went unsaid
I stand alone in the barren street
Devoid of life, or the living to meet
In a world gone dark, all the memories are on repeat
[Chorus] x2
Because the stars are all ablaze tonight
And the emptiness of everything fills the sky
With snow on the ground
Nothing makes a sound
I'm alone on New Year's Day
[Verse 3]
Now the sun comes up and illuminates the land below
A sure sign that life will start and begin to grow
But I remain in my accustomed state
It seems that all of this has become my fate
And I realize I've made a great mistake
But it's already too late
[Chorus] x2
The stars are all ablaze tonight
And the emptiness of everything fills the sky
With snow on the ground, nothing makes a sound
I'm alone on New Year's Day
It's New Year's Day
