New Year's Lyrics

Bad to feel the way I am
Today's another day you do what you can
Feel so sad, so bad today
All our friends have gone away

Here in my castle lines crease my face
Take them away, take them far away
Feel so sad, so bad today
All our friends have gone away

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song is one of the greatest hidden gems of 90s indie rock. The Seam version has a ripping guitar solo, but I kind of prefer the melancholy guitars and vocals and meandering bassline in this one. About sitting back after drinking too many on a night that's supposed to be a celebration, and realizing you're alone and only getting older.
