New Year's Eve
You don't haunt me like I want you to
You just move through me, the way I used to move through you
It's seeping in now, so crystalline
Black crinkled napkins, back seater limousine, mm
Now it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve
You're not going to a party, so you don't have to leave
And I am here at home happier than you'll ever be
No, I knew you'd rather ball on this New Year's Eve
Melancholia is my predilection
It's bad, but it's better than a life without conviction
It's seeping in now, go ahead, make me wait
When you're here you're good, but darling, you were never great
'Cause now it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve
You're not going to a party, so you don't have to leave
And I am here at home happier than you'll ever be
No, I knew you'd rather ball on this New Year's Eve
Standstill traffic down in Midtown
You've been taking me around town for a little too long
But the meter's still on
Black cars, caviar, carry on like you're a star
If the champagne's flowing, then you'll never be alone
But I'm done with this circus, I got back all of my focus
No more time for you to squander, so I'ma let you wonder who I am
You can ghost me all you like
'Cause now it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve
You're not going to a party, so you don't have to leave
And I am here at home happier than you'll ever be
No, I knew you'd rather ball on this New Year's Eve
You just move through me, the way I used to move through you
It's seeping in now, so crystalline
Black crinkled napkins, back seater limousine, mm
Now it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve
You're not going to a party, so you don't have to leave
And I am here at home happier than you'll ever be
No, I knew you'd rather ball on this New Year's Eve
Melancholia is my predilection
It's bad, but it's better than a life without conviction
It's seeping in now, go ahead, make me wait
When you're here you're good, but darling, you were never great
'Cause now it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve
You're not going to a party, so you don't have to leave
And I am here at home happier than you'll ever be
No, I knew you'd rather ball on this New Year's Eve
Standstill traffic down in Midtown
You've been taking me around town for a little too long
But the meter's still on
Black cars, caviar, carry on like you're a star
If the champagne's flowing, then you'll never be alone
But I'm done with this circus, I got back all of my focus
No more time for you to squander, so I'ma let you wonder who I am
You can ghost me all you like
'Cause now it's almost midnight on New Year's Eve
You're not going to a party, so you don't have to leave
And I am here at home happier than you'll ever be
No, I knew you'd rather ball on this New Year's Eve
