turn the faucet on too hot
til my skin is streaked with red
the pain feels like a friend
that’s why I got out of bed
rub the lotion on my skin
paint the roses on my face
bow at the altar of routine
I don’t know my mind, but I know my place
I don’t like myself today, and nothing’s gonna change it
It’s a new year but I’m not new
the weight of it all can’t be erased
it’s a new year but I’m not new
you can read the story on my face
I don’t know my mind, but I know my place
put on a fancy dress
slip on my best pair of heels
armoured up with glitter and gloss
so no can tell how I really feel
I don’t like myself today, and nothing’s gonna change it
It’s a new year but I’m not new
nothing’s gonna change it
