You tattoo the failures on, on to your length of arm
They may run wrist to shoulder blade
Whether my badges of honor you lost in love
Savin' the tale of the child that failed for another day

This will be a totally new year

Don't let the pouring rain temper your day-by-day
Don't let the bones the closet may hold get in the way
After a long dark night bathe in the morning light
Then take your return, the lesson you learned, you'll get it right

This is where we begin, feels like an ending
Say it with no pretense, I'm tired of pretending
You know that life won't wait
You'll have to make your move the choices you make
Every awful mistake will try to define you

This will be a totally new year

Don't let the pouring rain temper your day-by-day
Don't let the bones the closet may hold get in the way
After a long dark night bathe in the morning light
Then take your return, the lesson you learned, you'll get it right

This will be a totally new year

Don't let the pouring rain temper your day-by-day
Don't let the bones the closet may hold get in the way
After a long dark night bathe in the morning light
Then take your return, the lesson you learned, you'll get it right
The lesson you learned, you'll get it right
