[Verse 1]

I wish the lines I read were true

The roses' red were all dark blue

I snapped their wilted stems

The same way they were bent

That didn′t fool you

The poets, they lie to calm their fears

They sit in bars and sip on beers

A pen their only friend

They write like it's the end

You know it's near

[Pre-Chorus]

Woah

December 31st again

Woah

A stranger has an ear to lend so

[Chorus]

Come here, my darlin′

Come here, my dear

I need someone to touch me

Remind me that I'm here

Let's toast to the rebellion

The war within our sphere

Just kiss my cheek and whisper

Happy New Year

[Verse 2]

The blood is dried on jagged scars

The red subsides to spattered art

I use the crimson paint

To try and recreate the days I knew you

A picture, it can't replace a laugh

The damaged sign their autographs

The fame and public name, I′d trade, no hesitation

To get our time back

[Pre-Chorus]

Woah

December 31st again

Woah

This trip around the sun has been, so

[Chorus]

Come here, my darlin′

Come here, my dear

I need someone to touch me

Remind me that I'm here

Let's toast to the past decade

Like noble cavaliers

Just kiss my cheek and whisper

Happy New Year

[Bridge]

January, February, March, April, May

Nomads of the underground

This city doesn′t age

Season after season

All riding the same train

Eyes avoid each other

On this frigid holiday, so

[Chorus]

Come here, my darlin'

Come here, my dear

I need someone to touch me

Remind me that I′m here

Let's toast to the rebellion

The war within our sphere

Just kiss my cheek and whisper

Happy New Year
