Better Next Year

Sophie May

I had hoped I'd feel better by now
Close my eyes through the summer somehow
And now that autumn's here
I'm afraid my biggest fear as followed me this trip around the sun
I still feel pretty awful but doesn't that sound boring
This crocodile is still full of tears
So I hold down with white knuckles and tell myself to buckle in
Cause baby I'll feel better next year

I had hoped I'd be cured by the fall
My misery, a memory to recall
With buckets full of wisdom
I'd reminisce the prison that I broke free from, oh so long
I'd go on to give speeches to children and their teacher
About being kinder to yourself
But then I'd be a lie
Cause there's no one that's kinder than me to myself
All year
