Aberdeen On New Years Eve

I'll melt your words into thoughts and worries

Swallow my tongue in a sigh

Salty taste, my eyes shut

So give me courage to lead through this stormy night

This last night of the year

For tears and weary eyes

And oh, the things I do to myself

Oh, like I'm punishing someone else

When all I do is keep losing myself

I ran through the city

In the blistering cold

Followed by the neon lights

Run, run faster, should have known

There's no escape from your ghosts on a New Year's night

This last sigh of the year

And no fireworks in sight

But all the things I do to myself

Oh, like I'm acting as someone else

When all I do is keep losing myself

This is the last night of a sorry lie

This is the last night of the second life

You need to grow and learn to love what you've earned

This is the last night of a sorry lie

This is the last night of the second life

You need to grow and learn to love what you've earned

Oh, the things I do to myself

Oh, I keep blaming everyone else

When all I do is keep fooling myself

(Run, run faster)

This is the last night of a sorry lie

This is the last night of the second life

So run, run faster, my friend
