Parachute - The New Year lyrics

I'm sick of cleaning up the mess you left behind What a way to start the new year On my hands and knees cleaning up the dirt and grime What a way to start the new year I'm sick of holding both ends of the tightrope Cause when you fall all that's left is old high hopes for me Stretched thin to the end trying to keep it all in What a way to start the new year Won't you say that it's alright? Won't you tell me it's okay? Because there's 364 more days I might be smiling but you'll never even hear me say That I like it in the shadows Counting down to zero just to start again Oh what a way to start the new year Don't get me wrong, I hate this holiday What a way to start the new year On my hands and knees, choosing what I have to say What a way to start the new year I never realized it could mean so much Just to go to bed later when we have to get up all the same, And we scream and clap for the end of what was and what we've become Won't you say that it's alright? Won't you tell me it's okay? Because we have 364 more days I might be smiling but you'll never even hear me say That I like it in the shadows Counting down to zero just to start again Oh what a way to start the new year Was it really that bad? And could it be better? Well, I don't know, but with you I still have hope That this could be my year 364 more days, 1 million chances left to find you and to see your face Making light out of the shadows, finally get to zero Maybe we'll both say 364 more days, 1 million chances left to find you and to see your face Making light out of the shadows, finally get to zero Maybe we'll both say What a way to start the new year
