New (voice memo) Lyrics

Seventeen was so long ago, but I feel it still in my bones

And I tried to be 25, but I couldn't leave well enough alone

Eight years was too much to bear, but here it is still in the air

Maybe I'm not who I seem, but part of you isn't there

So I'm trying something new, like getting over you

I'm just trying something new, like getting over you

Thirty-five is coming up fast, but I can't see past the past

So I've tried to write a new page, but your name is still in the cast

Finally, let's just agree to move on and try something else

Don't keep one part of me, don't store me, tear down the shelf

And just try something new, like getting over you

Can you try something new, like getting over you

It's just so strange to have new days when I'm still young yet turning gray

I'm giving up on who I was and I'm looking up, I keep looking up

It's just so strange to have new days when I'm still young yet turning gray

I'm giving up on who I was and I'm looking up, I keep looking up

I'm looking up, I keep looking up

I'm looking up, I keep looking up

I keep looking up, I keep looking up

Maybe this is a bit heartless for someone who wasn't so bad

I finally have new dreams without you and I'm so glad

An aside, I don't like to write songs so personal

Maybe you'll think it's about you, but hey, try something new
