We drink till we see black
We dare not look back
At our failures
Our success
Our tears
Or are best
We shed our skins
Say we're born anew
We let go of old sins
From the hand of life we drew
Better cards to play with this year
But the rules of the game most don't hear
Time is an illusion and we're under it's spell
We change a number and say all will be well
But we forget nothing changes and it never will
We look towards the future with unshakable will
Not knowing the future is now and it's only time we kill
New Year old news
New heart desires but still sees with old views
How can we fix ourselves when it's the world that suffers
How can we change when life gives us no offers
May love find us while we're still foolish
And save our hearts before joy abolish
Save us from ourselves before our lives, we demolish
