New Years Day

New Years Day, I'm all alone
No one's calling to come over
Dirty dishes in the sink
Last year's filth still stuck on me

I sent a letter to a friend
I'm wishing you all of my best
I hope that one day you'll forgive me
Then I'll forgive myself

The hardest part of getting sober
Is pouring yourself out of the bottle
No one to blame
The problem is me
I quit drinking
But I'm still swallowing
I'm still swallowing

Make a list of resolutions
I'll decide just who I am
And even if I don't keep them
At least I'm setting the intention

The future's coming into view
Won't give the past what I've got left
In one year's time on this same day
I swear to God I will be changed

The hardest part of getting sober
Is pouring yourself out of the bottle
No one to blame
The problem is me
I quit drinking
But I'm still swallowing

No one to blame
The problem is me
I quit drinking
But I'm still swallowing
I'm still swallowing
