Nothing New

Don't kid yourself, you're just nothing new
because I've been down this old path before,
synonymous to everything I've been through,
you're completely offhand and nothing new.

Don't flatter yourself, you weren't that great,
it just really wasn't all that special, you see,
there isn't much that anyone could even debate,
you're the same story and you weren't that great.

Don't pretend this was ever anything unique,
you didn't say one thing that meant much,
you were a shallow mountain without a peak
because you were never once anything unique.

Don't kid yourself, you were nothing new,
and you’re going to die all alone, like me,
so I really just wanted to say 'thank you,'
you're simply irrelevant and nothing new.
