On January 1, 2024, British singer-songwriter Rex Orange County teased a snippet of his song “NEW YEARS” from his upcoming fifth album in his Discord server.
Lyrics from Snippet
[Verse 1]
When's it gonna change?
What's the point in making this when they just stay the same?
Writing things I've wrote before
Said that I would quit
But I don't think I'm sticking to it
[Verse 2]
My new year's resolution was a weak one
Forgot that shit by Feb
I was gonna get shit done
But I had new shit in my head
It came 'round to March and
I was down and depressed
It was too much for a minute
Was not living at my best
I just stayed in bed for days and
Showers came in April
Feeling like a fool now
I'm not looking forward
But when it gets warmer
Gon' feel a little better
I may, now it's May
NEW YEARS was written by Rex Orange County.
