New Year, New Me

[Verse 1]
Calendar flip
Old page falls
All of those could-have-beens
Stuck to the walls
Boxed up photos
In the back of my mind
I loved that version of me
But I’m leaving her behind
[Pre-Chorus]
I was scared of changing
Scared I’d stay the same
Now I’m done with waiting
I’m calling out my name
[Chorus]
Happy New Year
I’m stepping into daylight
I’m letting go of the past
It’s alright
I’m learning to be
A better version of me
Happy New Year
I’m starting where my feet are
Every tiny promise a bright star
I’m learning to be
A better version of me
[Verse 2]
Little bad habits
Lined up like dominos
One by one
I’ll tip them and let them go
Talking to myself
A little kinder each day
If I fall on Monday
I’ll get back up Tuesday
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need perfect
I just need today
Every humble heartbeat
Starts a tidal wave
[Chorus]
Happy New Year
I’m stepping into daylight
I’m letting go of the past
It’s alright
I’m learning to be
A better version of me
Happy New Year
I’m starting where my feet are
Every tiny promise a bright star
I’m learning to be
A better version of me (oh, a better me)
[Bridge]
Here’s to the first try
Here’s to the late nights
Here’s to the brave hearts
Shaking in the headlights
If I lose my way
I’ll still believe
Tomorrow’s just a chance
To try again as me
[Chorus]
Happy New Year
I’m stepping into daylight
I’m letting go of the past
It’s alright
I’m learning to be
A better version of me
Happy New Year
I’m starting where my feet are
Every tiny promise a bright star
I’m learning to be
A better version of me (oh)
I’m learning to be
A better version of me

pop, Shiny modern pop with bright synth plucks and upbeat drums; verse sits in a tight, conversational pocket, pre-chorus lifts with airy pads, and chorus hits wide with stacked harmonies and claps. Clean, polished production and confident female vocals that build from intimate to anthemic across the song., happy
