Resolutions from Calendar Year by Isaac Graham

Happy New Year’s Day my friends
Let’s hope the party never ends
May this year be better than the last
And I hope you find some happiness
Amongst all of the bitterness
Let us not dwell too long on the past

And I know that last year
Was difficult and testing
But I knew that you’d make it through
And I hope that you’re stronger
For all of the hardship
And this year brings something new

May no acquaintance be forgot
Remember all that you’ve been taught
Let us take our time and stay the course
Free yourself from the negative
And give yourself a chance to live
And when you fall get straight back on the horse

And I think we forget
How to act in our best interests
But some things are worth a good fight
And all that I want
Is to see your potential
And know that you’re doing alright

So forgive yourself as you take stock
Pay less attention to the clock
Take ownership of everything you choose
And let go of that false control
And find the thing that makes you whole
Make sure you’ve got something left to lose

And I’m taking this moment
To write a new chapter
About how nothing goes to plan
And I’m slowly but surely
Accepting the fact
That nobody knows how the fuck this all ends

Because I want for us all
To stay closer together
And not drink away how we feel
Because I’m getting tired
Of discussing the weather
I just want to say something real
For a change
