Alone on New Years

From Off the Summit EP

Released on November 24, 2023

Alone on New Year’s centers on two close friends whose platonic bond is repeatedly mistaken for romance. Through casual skits and mirrored verses, the song captures late-night conversations, (incorrect -_-) social assumptions, and the humor of spending New Year’s together as friends — before the night quietly hints at the possibility of meeting someone new.

Lyrics

[SUTI]
You can’t call me a baby-sitter just because I'm helping you

[BEST FRIEND]
Yes you are

[SUTI]
No I’m not, and I don’t know why you keep saying this

[BEST FRIEND]
Because you are

[SUTI]
I’m choosing to spend time with you, I want to be here, ok?

[BEST FRIEND]
Whatever

[SUTI]
But also, it’s 3am, so I don’t want to be here, so can we get up and go?

[BEST FRIEND]
Yeah, my dad’s going to kill me, let’s just go

[BYSTANDER]
Ok y’all two looking cute, ok

[BYSTANDER]
Where’d you meet her

[SUTI & BEST FRIEND]
Uh nope, no no nope, ah ah  
We’re not dating


[VERSE 1 - SUTI]
I really think I need a girlfriend
Every time that I walk in a club
I′m there with my best friend
And she's pretty but damn
I'm sick of the misconceptions
Every time we′re seen together
There′s this perception
That's she my girl
And I′m her guy
I can't count all the times
I found a sexy light-skin babe on the couch
Send me heart eyes
Until my best friend hugs me
It′s looks too lovey-dovey
Another night I'm going home alone
With no one to touch me
Damn

I really think I need a girlfriend
I really think I need a girlfriend
Living alone your whole life is one fear
But I′m just scared of being alone on new year's

[VERSE 2 - BEST FRIEND]
I really think I need a boyfriend
Every time that I go out to eat
I'm there with my best friend
He′s a cool talk
But I wanna go on a date and
I′m tired going 50-50 on this bill, man
See the man of my dreams
I think I'm on cloud nine
I look his direction
One-two
We met eyes
But he sees my best friend with me
The guy won′t even approach me
Another night in bed
Nobody to lick this lipstick off me
Damn

I really think I need a boyfriend
I really think I need a boyfriend
Living alone your whole life is one fear
But I'm just scared of being alone on new year′s

[GIRL AT BAR]
Like I probably should've called my friends
But it′s alright, I'll figure it out

[SUTI]
Now I ain't usually the type to approach
Unless something catches my attention

[CROWD] 
She′s bad, boy

[SUTI]
You steady walking in them high heels
But if you thought I ain′t seen you, baby
You tripping

[VERSE 3 - SUTI]
Baby look up
(Six minutes till dawn, it's almost new year′s)
Got to make up your mind
Am I only worth a kiss
Or do we got something more going on here?
Baby hold up
I know a spot
Christmas in the park
Downtown
We don't need a club
We don′t need a drink
We don't need the rails
Take me to the brink
You can be my light
I can be your knight

If you take me home
This night will not be silent
Roses are red
Violets are blue
If you need a man
I will volunteer as tribute
You got a whole plan
I do not want to distract
I just want to contribute
My ego′s almost as tall as you
I'll be honest if you're going to be honest with me too

[SUTI]
I really think I need a girlfriend
(I really think I need a girlfriend)
[BEST FRIEND]
I really think I need a boyfriend
[SUTI & BEST FRIEND]
Living alone your whole life is one fear
But I′m just scared of being alone on new year′s
