This is a New Year lullaby, I can not fake it
You know the reasons, don't ask why
When I got drunk and crashed the car, were you still near me?
Still I've got writing on my face

Minute by minute, day by day
Though I can touch you you're so far away
Minute by minute, day by day
Minute by minute, day by day
Though I can touch you you're so far away
Minute by minute, day by day, two packs a day

This is an Easter crucified, buried in levels
Though I'm still bleeding I won't die
I can see violence in your eyes; I've run out of water
Satan is singing me lullabies

Minute by minute, day by day
Though I can touch you you're so far away
Minute by minute, day by day. Ooh
Minute by minute, day by day
Though I can touch you you're so far away
Minute by minute, day by day, two packs a day

Ooh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
Ooh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ohh la la, ooh la la, ooh la la
I know it's time to say goodbye, but I'm still wasting
This is no time for me to…
Now that its all been said and done, our house is empty
Where do I go now you have gone?

Minute by minute, day by day
Though I can touch you you're so far away
Minute by minute, day by day. Ooh
Minute by minute, day by day
Though I can touch you you're so far away
Minute by minute, day by day, two packs a day
