Birthdays
I'll be honest, I'm not a fan of birthday cards
No matter what's on it, things will only stay the same
Maybe that's my existentialism talking
But flattened trees with words can only do so much
I can't believe this race is thriving
We just listen to the signs on the side of the road
We built the god damn signs
We built the god damn roads
I'll be honest, I'm not so good at telling truths
Couldn't call me tonic, I'm so far from my damn roots
I stopped watering them 'cause I wanted to
I'd like to think I'm okay, if only just for today
If the meds have to do it then they'd better do it well
I'd like to say I'm alright, that all my stars have aligned
If not in the day, here's hoping they'll stay the night
But it's fine
They'll still sing for my life
And hand me a card
I'll be honest, I'm not so good at passing through
I'm no novice, but it's hard to surprise you
Maybe it's my inexperience that's talking
But can wait a year, or maybe thirty-two
I can't believe that I'm still thriving
I've done nothing more than unwrap day after day
Hoping for the day
I'll hope to stay
I'll be honest, the candles never meant much to
A younger, the braver soul who played with fire
They said I'll only live once, and I'll know that's true
I'd like to think I'm okay, if only just for today
If the meds have to do it then they'd better do it well
I'd like to say I'm alright, that all my stars have aligned
If not in the day, here's hoping they'll stay the night
But it's fine
They'll still sing for my life
No matter what's on it, things will only stay the same
Maybe that's my existentialism talking
But flattened trees with words can only do so much
I can't believe this race is thriving
We just listen to the signs on the side of the road
We built the god damn signs
We built the god damn roads
I'll be honest, I'm not so good at telling truths
Couldn't call me tonic, I'm so far from my damn roots
I stopped watering them 'cause I wanted to
I'd like to think I'm okay, if only just for today
If the meds have to do it then they'd better do it well
I'd like to say I'm alright, that all my stars have aligned
If not in the day, here's hoping they'll stay the night
But it's fine
They'll still sing for my life
And hand me a card
I'll be honest, I'm not so good at passing through
I'm no novice, but it's hard to surprise you
Maybe it's my inexperience that's talking
But can wait a year, or maybe thirty-two
I can't believe that I'm still thriving
I've done nothing more than unwrap day after day
Hoping for the day
I'll hope to stay
I'll be honest, the candles never meant much to
A younger, the braver soul who played with fire
They said I'll only live once, and I'll know that's true
I'd like to think I'm okay, if only just for today
If the meds have to do it then they'd better do it well
I'd like to say I'm alright, that all my stars have aligned
If not in the day, here's hoping they'll stay the night
But it's fine
They'll still sing for my life
