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
