Together We'll Ring in the New Year Songtext
von Motion City Soundtrack

This must be it, welcome to the new year
The drinks were consumed, the plants were destroyed and the hors d′oeuvres dismantled
I'm not smiling behind this fake veneer
I am often interrupted or completely ignored

But most of all I′m bored

I'm trying to find out
If my words have any meaning
Lackluster and full of contempt
When it always ends the same

Why won't she listen to me?


Why did I come, oh, why did I come here?
These humans all suck, I′d rather be home feeling violent and lonely
I′m not trying to sound so insincere
But the postcard that's taped to the freezer reads "wish you were here"

How I wish I could disappear

I′m trying to find out
If my words have any meaning
Lackluster and full of contempt
When it always ends the same

Heads up, damage control
There's a ring around her finger
Last chance for changing lanes
And you missed it by a mile

Why won′t she listen to me?

This must be it, welcome to the new year
