New Year (Lyric) by wilco

Here we stand, nearly 12AM waiting for someone to start the countdown so we can kiss and pretend that it’s gonna be different this year. And now here they come again with champagne filled glasses so we can toast and make promises that we know we’re never gonna keep. Outside the fireworks sound like a war that’s a million miles away and people are dyin’ just the same as yesterday but we don’t have to see their face. So, we just keep our thoughts to ourselves and never mention out loud that sooner or later the new year is gonna get old.

I love that people are taking themselves so seriously. I haven't been commenting at all because I've just been using this site as an archive, but damn! Is there something going around running up peoples' asses or what? I absolutely love the sarcasm and the synthetic wit. I flaunt my vocabulary as much as the next person, but hey! Nobody talks like this. Good luck on all future ventures you guys, and I hope you'll find someone to give you that hug you so desperately need.

P.S. Best poem I've ever read. *5*
