Happy New Year Lyrics
I can't escape what's in my head
There's no repentance when I serve my sentence
The candle's burning at both ends
Far from anyone I know at all
I never felt so alone
Cause the hope of spring died with the fall
I can finally smile when
I know things can't get worse than this
And I see things clearly
And I love them dearly
A timeline stained with tragedy and death
Clock keeps turning faster when
The candle's burning at both ends
Far from anyone I know at all
I never felt so alone
Cause the hope of spring died with the fall
A brighter future's on the rise
I'll leave commitments pending
The worst year of my life is ending
I watch the days expire
Caught in a flicker of fire
The hands are turning round
The hours counting down
And it's all over now
All that I had burned to the ground
All that would never be
I watched it die in front of me
A living nightmare was born in this year
There are dark clouds all around me
And I couldn't see the sun even if I tried
Far from anyone I know at all
Never felt so alone
Cause the hope of spring died with the fall
The hope of spring died with the fall
Matt: "2010 was the worst year of my life. Although this turned out to be the darkest song on the record lyrically, the overall message was intended to be an eagerness to see what the future had in store for me because I was in a place where things could only get better. This was a very cathartic experience for me and my words served as my therapy."
"I watch the days expire Caught in a flicker of fire The hands are turning round The hours counting down And it's all over now All that I had burned to the ground All that would never be I watched it die in front of me A living nightmare was born in this year There are dark clouds all around me And I couldn't see the sun even if I tried"
I can't even begin to explain how amazing these lyrics are. I just recently got into SYG and I'm so glad I did! Better late than never.
