231231: One More Twenty Four

from Leap Songs, Part 2 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

Another year is closing like curtains on a stage
Actors leave the building the props get wheeled away
Anything unfinished have to wait another day

After all we been through the changes in the weather
All the months we waited some seemed to take forever
As the moment passes why's it feel like now or never

Some will celebrate when midnight rolls around
Others may self medicate like strangers in the crowd
Build it up as though it's something sacred and profound
Easy does it like so many days before
Remember it's just one more twenty four

A morning ain't a morning without getting on my knees
And a prayer ain't a prayer without a thank you and a please
Anybody help me see the forest through the trees

A little at a time I watch the world as it transforms
Anything from yesterday can't hurt me anymore
And January first well that's just one more twenty four
