    New Year

    by: Test Your Reflex

    I'm running 'round in circles
    Trying to find some peace of mind
    Cause it's a lonely place when
    All the we need we cannot find
    Wait, wait cause I don't wanna be lost
    Wait, wait cause I don't wanna be lost
    And I don't wanna be the one to drag you down
    Wait
    For a new day, for a new year
    I'll be standing on my own
    In a new place, with my hands out
    Looking for the answers
    It's such a sweet solution
    To close our eyes and walk in line
    And all our contributions
    Just seem to fade away with time
    Wait, wait cause I don't wanna be lost
    Wait, wait cause I don't wanna be lost
    And I don't wanna be the one to drag you down
    Wait
    For a new day, for a new year
    I'll be standing on my own
    In a new place, with my hands out
    Looking for the answers
    Wait
    For a new day, for a new year
    I'll be standing on my own
    In a new place, with my hands out
    Looking for the answers
    I cant stand here, waiting
    With my hands out, for the ceiling
    But I won't lie, I won't try
    I can't walk such a straight line
    And these bright lights, surround me
    People are so friendly
    But I won't lie, I won't try
    I can't pretend that it's alright, no
    Wait
    For a new day, for a new year
    I'll be standing on my own
    In a new place, with my hands out
    Looking for the answers
    Write down your name
    C'mon baby, write down your name
    C'mon baby, write down your name
