Death Cab For Cutie - The New Year lyrics
[Death Cab For Cutie - The New Year lyrics]
So this is the new year
And I don't feel any different
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance
In the distance
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
Or self-assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are
Wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I could travel just by folding the map
No more airplanes, or speed trains
Or freeways there'd be no distance that
Could hold us back
There'd be no distance that
Could hold us back
There'd be no distance that
Could hold us back
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
And I don't feel any different
The clanking of crystal
Explosions off in the distance
In the distance
So this is the new year
And I have no resolutions
Or self-assigned penance
For problems with easy solutions
So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let's make believe that we are
Wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one
I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I could travel just by folding the map
No more airplanes, or speed trains
Or freeways there'd be no distance that
Could hold us back
There'd be no distance that
Could hold us back
There'd be no distance that
Could hold us back
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
So this is the new year
