New Years Resolutions

I hate to repeat myself
But all I can do is ask the same old questions
Life changes so much in the blink of an eye
Sometimes, you've got to catch up with it
Half a year spent in black
Are we riding the tails of a heart attack?
We come and go, we're free to roam
I don't think I'm ever coming back

So go ahead, retrace your steps, yet again
To find a way to keep every heart beating loud
Roses mark a box that's buried underground

You can't trash determination
Breathe all the air back into your exhaustion
Brandish uneven teeth to smile
Just wear it out, yeah, wear it through
Then all these words coming spilling out to you in this disillusion
If this year continues how it's been
You're likely to never see my face again
So just in case, farewell my weathered friend

So go ahead, retrace your steps, yet again
To find a way to keep every heart beating loud
Until then, live it just for what it's worth
And know one day it will come crashing down
I'm told, that's life, somehow

What we've lost this time cannot be found
Were all in the corners hiding our faces now
No more funerals, no fire
And I'll miss all of you until the day I die

No more funerals, no fire
No more funerals, no fire

Have you found your way out of being afraid of sleeping sound?
And getting stirred awake as the night gives up
Like the dust that's settled to the ground
Where we walk on buried names until we all fall down
Have you found your way out?
