Mopping up beer at the end of the year
I was crushing through the holiday rush
I was feeling alone with no direction to go in
But I thought the only way left was up
And the little I'd saved making minimum wage
Was just enough to blow on rent each month
So I'd work til I'd sleep and I'd sow what I'd reap
And I wouldn't care if it felt punk
But it wasn't enough
Now would you believe that come New Year's Eve
I was desperate for getting free
Cleaning literal shit from a dive bar toilet
And ringing in 2019
On the bike ride home I made a wish that I'd only
Find someone who believed in me
As I dodged the drunk drivers and the champagne imbibers
In the streets of the capitol city
I wished that love would find me
But it's never that easy
Do you believe that there's some reprieve?
Do you believe that it gets easier?
I wanna see if there's sun beyond the horizon
But I don't know it I'll ever get there
Do you believe that there's some reprieve?
Do you believe that it'll be OK?
I wanna find sun beyond the horizon
But I don't know, I don't know
Now all the cards say around the holidays
That you're blessed if you believe in a myth
But I saw the light on that cold lonely night
In the glow of one incredible kiss
But like a candle to wind as the glow turned dim
I couldn't look at it with any wonder
For the sum of the living and the inevitable dimming
It won't kill you and it won't make you stronger
And you'll never get younger
But the days will get longer
Do you believe that there's some reprieve?
Do you believe that it gets easier?
I wanna see if there's sun beyond the horizon
But I don't know it I'll ever get there
Do you believe that there'll be relief?
Do you believe that it'll be ok?
I guess we'll find out, but I have my doubts
It'll come before the end of my days
