I read it all on the news feed last night, I guess it's been a year
A year of sighing, a year of crying, since you've been here
Another filtered perfect picture, the comments seem to say
A memory of you and me on New Years Day

It was early dawn, I think
We'd had everything to drink
And I remember posing near that dying pine

With you, the darkened auld lang syne

You always said you wanted what I wanted
I never doubted that
'Til I asked you whether we'd be better off with a cat
Now I'm in the house you chose and the bed you bought
To face your perfect few
You wanted trips, you wanted cars, and I wanted you

Now, I think of what love does
And if I'm stronger than I was
When just a simple picture that we posted
Brings to mind the day you ghosted
Breaks the dream that life would be just fine

With you, the darkened auld lang syne

Oh, I can live with the bitterness
Oh, I lose a bet with every man I kiss
So may our acquaintance be forgot
And never brought to mind

Now, I only hope your bubble bursts
Each and every January 1st
When I hit repost and remind you of the time

With me, the darkened auld lang syne
