This song is about how nothing changes. It's not completely apparent, but you can sort of see it. First off, the whole New Year thing is representative of starting-over. But basically the song says that's bullshit. "But most of all I’m bored." "Why won’t you listen to me?" "I’m not trying to sound so insincere But the postcard that’s taped the freezer reads: Wish you were here." "Last chance for changing lanes and you missed it by a mile." Yeah, it's a rather melancholy thought, but I swear, the whole song is a rant about waiting for change that'll never come. He tells himself that things will be different, but they never change, and he's just sick of the same crap he's always put up with.
A good song for when you're feeling hopeless or bored out of your mind by your own life.
...trust me.
