A million memories flooded in my head
In moments that I would dread
The pain of the past keeps pushing through
Perhaps they don't really care about you

Year per year the memories torn
Feeling a new you would always be reborn
Good or bad as it may seem
The old you, you can no longer redeem

Smiles and praises always said
But I can barely keep them in my head
For what's important would burst to say
"Hey, you know we'll never go away"

Each day I prayed, each day I hoped
"This day! Oh please! I wouldn't mope!"
Shards of glass cut through my chest
But still, I was still hoping for the best

This year has been so bad for me
Next year, for now, we will just see
