about

I wrote pretty much this whole song on bass which was kind of interesting I don't usually write on bass but that riff sounded cool on bass and it was simple enough that I felt comfortable singing and playing at the same time.
This song is definitely not the most unique feeling out there. Every new year Im always like "I gotta a good feeling about this one guys!" and then something happens and were just like "Haha yeah Im still feeling this is a good one!" I also wrote this when I was bumming out for a while so thats nice.

lyrics

Intro:
Happy for about
5 minutes
optimistic for the future even less
Feel every good thing balances out
to something I can be
Bummed about.

Verse:
Taking to many photographs
cause you know
I don't wanna forget about you
when Im old
and grey
and I know things don't seem so great

Pre chorus:
I know we will do our best
to help our friends
laugh it off

Chorus:
This New Years gonna be
Better than the last ones
Could ever hope
to be

At least thats what we tell our selves
anyway

Even if we know
It's not true

Verse 2:
I know
You'll be alright
I know
We'll be alright
even if
it's what we tell our selves

Outro:
To get by x2
I know it's not true x2
