New Years Day by The Other Realm Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I spent the last year putting myself together
I spent 12 months picking up the broken parts
A lot of damn time looking myself in the mirror
And trying to find love for the man I see and his darkest parts
I spent a whole year trying to forgive myself
For the things I didn't know and for putting my heart through hell
I spent a whole year learning that the world just ain't mine to control
And that accepting that means I'll finally let shit go
[Pre-Chorus]
But I know, I know, I know I'm not there yet, I've still got work to do
But I've grown, I've grown, and I've made my way towards peace and this beautiful truth
[Chorus]
I know when I wake up on New Year's Day
I'll finally let myself feel okay
And I know I can't keep fighting against the change
And that's how I'll learn to be okay
Working on it each and every day
Yeah, that's how I'll learn to be okay
And I'm starting on New Year's Day
I'm starting on New Year's Day
[Verse 2]
I spent a whole year telling everyone I was fine
And spent just as much time praying somebody would call me out on every lie
I lost an awful lot of time to playing that victim game
But now I've gotta make peace with change and stop searching for somebody to blame
[Pre-Chorus]
I know, I know, I know I'm not there yet, I've still got work to do
But I've grown, I've grown, and I've made my way towards peace and this beautiful truth
[Chorus]
I know when I wake up on New Year's Day
I'll finally let myself feel okay
And I know I can't keep fighting against the change
And that's how I'll learn to be okay
Working on it each and every day
Yeah, that's how I'll learn to be okay
And I'm starting on New Year's Day
I'm starting on New Year's Day
[Outro]
Ba-dee-da
Ba-da-dee-da-da
Ba-da, ba
New year's day
New year's day
Ba-da-da-da-da
New year's day
I spent the last year putting myself together
I spent 12 months picking up the broken parts
A lot of damn time looking myself in the mirror
And trying to find love for the man I see and his darkest parts
I spent a whole year trying to forgive myself
For the things I didn't know and for putting my heart through hell
I spent a whole year learning that the world just ain't mine to control
And that accepting that means I'll finally let shit go
[Pre-Chorus]
But I know, I know, I know I'm not there yet, I've still got work to do
But I've grown, I've grown, and I've made my way towards peace and this beautiful truth
[Chorus]
I know when I wake up on New Year's Day
I'll finally let myself feel okay
And I know I can't keep fighting against the change
And that's how I'll learn to be okay
Working on it each and every day
Yeah, that's how I'll learn to be okay
And I'm starting on New Year's Day
I'm starting on New Year's Day
[Verse 2]
I spent a whole year telling everyone I was fine
And spent just as much time praying somebody would call me out on every lie
