[Verse 1]
Everybody loves the original
Everybody's got time to be cynical
Old enough to know better by now
It's the greatest joke, don't go letting me down
Hold my drink, this just got physical
I'm on a new wave, it's getting visceral
We're going toe to toe to see how you go
I'm in pain, so yes, it is painful

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh heart of mine
Sing a sad song, sing a sad song, won't you?
Oh heart of mine
Sing a sad song

[Chorus]
And it's a fresh start fever
Well, who wouldn't want to be here?
Welcome to the future
Dream a little bigger

[Verse 2]
As for now, I reserve judgment
Until these chains, chains of redundant
The brave die young, and that's alright for some
But I'm after something long-term
Let's make resolutions
I've only got problems and no solutions
You're just someone to the world
But you're the world to someone else, so don't you
[Pre-Chorus]
And oh heart of mine
Sing a sad song, sing a sad song, won't you?
Oh heart of mine
Sing a sad song

[Chorus]
And it's a fresh start fever
Who wouldn't want to be here?
Welcome to the future
Dream a little bigger
And it's a fresh start fever
Fresh start fever
Welcome to the future
Dream a little bigger

[Bridge]
You're a hard act to follow
So I stare down this empty bottle
But there's no message at the bottom
So how do I solve it?
I'm a hard act to follow
I know it sinks in slow
Shallow is as shallow does
Look at you with all those scars
You've got a chip on your shoulder
Getting worse now you're older
Getting hard now you're sober
There's your life, you know it's over
It's over, it's over, it's over
[Chorus]
And it's a fresh start fever
Who wouldn't want to be here?
Welcome to the future
Dream a little bigger
And it's a fresh start fever
Fresh start fever
Welcome to the future
Dream a little big, dream a little bigger
