IMO it's about growing old and becoming jaded against utopian notions of better world.
"Take my hand/ Hurray for the winters come..."
There is really nothing to celebrate other than the arrival of winter.
"Cease my plans/ Excuse me from the scenes of old"
I nonetheless continue in the things I've set out to do.
"I can meet you there?, I just don't care/ On this New Years Day/ With no celebration from me"
People are waiting for me at this party, I go because I don't want them to worry or feel bad. But there is nothing worth celebrating.
"Understand/ There's comfort with the wealth of gold"
There use to be some bigger value, now I seek only pleasure.
"Increase demands/ Release me from the scenes of old"
Though this attitude kinda sickens me.
I kinda feel the same way... Anyhow, happy new year 2008.
