Standing at a crossroad, snow falling down.   Misery loves company and a companion could be found.   What started as a conquest had ended in defeat.   The way we were, the things we said, and all I won't repeat.      New Year's Eve ain't all it's cracked up to be.   I've seen the best and heard the worst and everything in between.   Eighteen hours is such a long, long time   And the sting of painful words destroy us inside.   Our silence can say so much and our words pack a painful punch.   Nothing can take away the memories of that day   And I was so sure that we'd fade away.   Fade away.      Adversity makes us stronger   so can we make this last a little longer?   Can we put aside the competition that resides in all of us,   In all of us?   I know it's in me and I've seen it in you,   But I set my sights on seeing this one through.   I am gonna see it through.   I know that we'll never fully agree,   But it's worth my time and it's worth the risk   Because this is family.
