[Verse 1]
Plastic cup
Midnight kitchen
Countdown buzzing through my phone
Someone yells
"to new beginnings"
Same old dishes
Overflow
Resolution on a napkin
Coffee ring around the goal
Say I'll finally break the pattern
Smile like I don't already know
[Chorus]
New year
Same ghost
Wearing different clothes
Every calendar page
Just a circle in the smoke
New year
Same ghost
I keep making these toasts
But the mirror in the morning
Never learned how to let go
[Verse 2]
Gym shoes waiting by the doorway
Still got tags from years ago
Vision board up with the sunrays
Fading edges
Curling slow
Text you
"this time it'll be different"
You just send a laughing face
'Cause we've danced around this distance
Every January tastes the same
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Maybe change is quiet
Shows up when I don't look
In the way I wash the dishes
How I finally call you back
If I keep on waking up
To the same old ceiling cracks
Maybe I'm the one that stays
While the years just overlap
[Chorus]
