And we saw in the new year
And then we kept on drinking
Still had time to think
And time to keep on sinking
When the gin ran out
We all took to the streets
All these discussions of sin and doubt
And regrets we're trying not to repeat
All the hours I'm wasting
Can't get them back
Am I on the wrong track
Or did I let it distract me
The sounds you were making
The way she was shaking
Another year older
Deeper in debt
Later to bed
All of this living inside my head
Like I think I'm beholden
To the stories I've told you
And our hopes of better days to come
Are drifting to death
And our words into vapors every breath
The sound that they left
Announcing our plans
Daring our gods to glory
Our courage to dust
What's to become of us
What's to become of us
All the hours I'm wastingCan't get them back
Am I on the wrong track
Or did I let it distract me
The sounds you were making
The way she was shaking
Another year older
Deeper in debt
Later to bed
All of this living inside my head
Like I think I'm beholden
To the stories I've told you
I raise a glass to the ghosts of my past
Then I drink it down
All the hours I'm wastingCan't get them back
Am I on the wrong track
Or did I let it distract me
The sounds you were making
The way she was shaking
Another year older
Deeper in debt
Later to bed
All of this living inside my head
Like I think I'm beholden
To the stories I've told you
