Happy New Year

I never want to look back again on the events of 2010 I can't escape what's in my head There's no repentance, when I've served my sentence The candle's burning at both ends Winter's cold, and I'm dreading coming home Far from anyone I know, at all Never felt so alone Because the hope of Spring died with the Fall I can finally feel content I can't help but smile, when I know things can't get worse than this I see things clearly, and I loved them dearly A timeline stained with tragedy and death The clock keeps turning faster, when... the candle's burning at both ends Winter's cold, and I'm dreading coming home Far from anyone I know, at all Never felt so alone Because the hope of Spring died with the Fall Rub these dark circles from my eyes A brighter future's on the rise I'll leave commitments pending The worst year of my life is ending I watch the dates expire, caught in a flicker of a fire The hands are turning 'round The hours counting down And it's all over now All that I had burned to the ground All that will never be, I watched it die in front of me A living nightmare was born in this year There are dark clouds all around me And I couldn't see the sun even if I tried Winter's cold, and I'm dreading coming home Far from anyone I know, at all Never felt so alone Because the hope of Spring died with the Fall The hope of Spring died with the Fall
