Your Year by The New Schematics Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The ball drops in New York City
And the slate's wiped clean again
Necks crane, champagne
In a shivering sea of shimmering sequin
It's a mad parade, a masquerade
Of failure, hope, and sin
And I’m standing at the heart of it
[Chorus]
Waiting on love to come around
Everybody feels a little lost
Why can't I feel a little found?
Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear
Lady Liberty or Lady Luck lean in and whisper in my ear
"This is gonna be your year"
[Verse 2]
I got a new notebook for Christmas
Prayers and resolutions in my pen
No shame, gonna name every demon in me
A revolution underneath my skin
It's a promenade, a motorcade
Of every man I've ever been
And I'm waving at the front of it
[Chorus]
Waiting on love to come around
Everybody feels a little lost
Why can't I feel a little found?
Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear
Lady Liberty, or Lady Luck lean in and whisper in my ear
"This is gonna be your year"
[Bridge]
I hear my name like sirens cut the silence in the dead of night
I'm changing all my ways and holding fast to the morning light
Every rundown ghost letting go of my memory
Lift me up, set my feet upon the rock and set me free
When the dust begins to settle, and the seasons come and go
Things change, life's strange
I'm feeling like a matador running at a bull
An avalanche cascade, a dream decayed
But I got a hand I'll never fold
Cause this year’s gonna be different
[Chorus]
Waiting on love to come around
Everybody feels a little lost
Why can't I feel a little found?
Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear
Lady Liberty, or Lady Luck anybody lean in and whisper in my ear
"This is gonna be your year"
[Outro]
This is gonna be your year
This is gonna be your year
This is gonna be your year
This is gonna be your year
The ball drops in New York City
And the slate's wiped clean again
Necks crane, champagne
In a shivering sea of shimmering sequin
It's a mad parade, a masquerade
Of failure, hope, and sin
And I’m standing at the heart of it
[Chorus]
Waiting on love to come around
Everybody feels a little lost
Why can't I feel a little found?
Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear
Lady Liberty or Lady Luck lean in and whisper in my ear
"This is gonna be your year"
[Verse 2]
I got a new notebook for Christmas
Prayers and resolutions in my pen
No shame, gonna name every demon in me
A revolution underneath my skin
It's a promenade, a motorcade
Of every man I've ever been
And I'm waving at the front of it
[Chorus]
Waiting on love to come around
Everybody feels a little lost
Why can't I feel a little found?
Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear
Lady Liberty, or Lady Luck lean in and whisper in my ear
"This is gonna be your year"
[Bridge]
I hear my name like sirens cut the silence in the dead of night
I'm changing all my ways and holding fast to the morning light
Every rundown ghost letting go of my memory
Lift me up, set my feet upon the rock and set me free
When the dust begins to settle, and the seasons come and go
Things change, life's strange
I'm feeling like a matador running at a bull
An avalanche cascade, a dream decayed
But I got a hand I'll never fold
Cause this year’s gonna be different
[Chorus]
Waiting on love to come around
Everybody feels a little lost
Why can't I feel a little found?
Waiting for a sign cut crystal clear
Lady Liberty, or Lady Luck anybody lean in and whisper in my ear
"This is gonna be your year"
[Outro]
This is gonna be your year
This is gonna be your year
This is gonna be your year
This is gonna be your year
