New Years 2008

Looking like a shit New Year. I opted to pack my stuff up from home and come back to school early to (hopefully) surround myself with friends.

As of now, all I've got is this New Year's song. It's actually not a New Year's song.

This Is Not A New Year's Song

(Lyrics below. Intro "inspired" by Robin.)

This song was written and recorded within a timespan of one lonely new years eve.

it is as much a message to the one i love as to anyone you may want in your arms this holiday season.

If someone you know is missing you dearly, take a few minutes and let them know you care.

Enjoy.

As the ball drops,
I know that you
Will be wrapped safely
In his arms.

As the ball drops,
It's clear to me—
Keeping away is
Fleeing harm.

(chorus)
This is not
A New Year's song.
This is not
A sing along in time.

This is not
A New Year's song
This song is
This song is mine.

As the ball drops,
Thousands of smiling faces
Lift their voice
In joy.

As the ball drops,
I can't stop thinking of times
You called me
Your boy.

And I know
This night apart,
Sure won't be the last.

And I know
All though I'm dying here—
This pain will pass

(chorus)

As the ball drops,
Before you you let
You soft lips
Press against his

I just want
To tell you this:
I know what love is.

(chorus)

This is not
A New Year's song.
This song is—
It's yours and mine.
