The New Year Lyrics - Death Cab For Cutie
Review The Song (5)
so this is the new year.
and i don't feel any different.
the clanking of crystal
explosions off in the distance (in the distance).
so this is the new year
and I have no resolutions
for self assigned penance
for problems with easy solutions
so everybody put your best suit or dress on
let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
as thirty dialogues bleed into one
i wish the world was flat like the old days
then i could travel just by folding a map
no more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
there'd be no distance that can hold us back.
there'd be no distance that could hold us back (x2)
so this is the new year (x4)
and i don't feel any different.
the clanking of crystal
explosions off in the distance (in the distance).
so this is the new year
and I have no resolutions
for self assigned penance
for problems with easy solutions
so everybody put your best suit or dress on
let's make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
as thirty dialogues bleed into one
i wish the world was flat like the old days
then i could travel just by folding a map
no more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
there'd be no distance that can hold us back.
there'd be no distance that could hold us back (x2)
so this is the new year (x4)

ummm, "this song is one of their heavier ones"
obviously you don't know the rest of ANY of death cab for cutie's albums.
one second on any album proves the fact that death cab is, indeed, DARK, in general. and "new year" is considerably light, even in comparison to the rest of Transatlanticism.

So this is the new year...
It's my New Years Eve party, it's quarter past one, and what exactly HAS changed? Fireworks have burned down, people finally got drunk, the music drifts off into metal, but the last digit on the calendar doesn't mean shit. Well, today's the day I am unusually friendly to my neighbours (just like last year) but besides that this could be any other day, any other year. That's what this song means to me, and it has proven itself to be realistic just once more.
amazing song | Reviewer: Dunc | 11/28/2007
this song is on eof the first death cab songs i heard and it got me hooked. it's actually really easy to sing and play at the same time too.

I love all Death Cab but this song is, what i think, one of their heavier ones and really shows their diversity and creativity within a song. It is really definitive.
