​n.y.e. Lyrics

[Chorus]
I think I drank too much
I'm still afraid of growin' up and slowin' down too soon
When the fireworks go off balloons will fall the ball it drops
This is New Years

I wanted to let you know
I thought of you, It's all for you
I changed the way, I thought of you
Revolving you, the sun, the moon
And seasons change, they fall for you

[Verse 1]
The runaround, exhausted you
The snow we watched, defrosts to rain
It's pourin' down, on top of you
The words we want, to take away
So we take back the shit that we say cause it got in the way
All the feelins that stay will escape
But repeatedly come back on days like today
To display this array on my day, on my face it is written
I can't stop and listen
I'm sittin' here wishin' that I could dismiss it
But the money and women don't help with decisions
There's no place like home but I'm focused on livin'
Don't know my limits
The sky is my feelin'
No fucks that I'm givin'
I might need a minute
Dear Lord I've been sinnin'
I'm holdin' my hands and I pray for forgiveness
I might need a minute
[Chorus]
I think I drank too much
I'm still afraid of growin' up and slowin' down too soon
Slowin' down too soon
When the fireworks go off balloons will fall the ball it drops
This is New Years
I wanted to let you know
I thought of you, It's all for you
I changed the way, I thought of you
Revolving you, the sun, the moon
And seasons change, they fall for you

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
