"Song For A New Year" lyrics

In the start of spring there was a garden
Everyone had seen a pretty rose
Never made much sense
But it was gorgeous nonetheless
Grass between the crevice of your toes

Every bowling pin had been exploded
Drinking coca cans and getting high
Skidding on our knees
Spilling guts on balconies

Don't let your memories get you down

Harper Collins made me hate religion
And Jesus Christ had made me drink too much
Rock and roll was sweet
But it was never good for me

Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down

Roll me
Roll me on a wheel
And hold me ask me how it feels
To start over at twenty seven years
On my heels
Coming back
And it kills
But I thank you

Ever since the summer I've been happy
Every day is wine and apple pie
None would ask for more
I've never felt like this before

Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down

Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down
Don't let your memories get you down
