“New Year’s Day”

There is a lost summer,
caught in a frozen cry,
on the banks of freedom,
on the brink, you and I
For your honor, maybe,
for your release I might
make a wish now, baby
God, it's so cold tonight
There is no godmother
after the last bell chimes,
spinning yarn for another
hand me down alibi
Shattering glass slippers,
breaking the rules of flight
Did you hear me whisper
at the stroke of midnight?
We all belong
Survive
We all belong
Try
As it was, born of violence,
crying out mother's tears.
As it is, sworn to silence.
Is it so many years?
File the old promise
under the newborn lie
When it wakes up hungry,
better we say goodbye
Counting down our reasons
for so long it's been this way,
that I don't know what to wish for,
by the next New Year's Day
We all belong
Survive
We all belong
Try
As it was, born of violence,
crying out mother's tears
As it is, sworn to silence
Is it so many years?
