Contemplating the meaning of life
Our rendezvous
Envious of those days
And then, feeling hungry
Contemplating the meaning of life
You and I, drifting apart
Surely you resent me
And then, feeling hungry
Rain falls, turning into a rainbow
Even that disappears
Eating, bathing, brushing teeth
And sleeping
In a nightmare that suffocates
When I wake up
Who do I resent?
And another year passes
The future, forming a line, continues
In the mirror, old and worn, who am I?
An era of breaking the mold and walking away
In the mirror, old and worn, is this me?
Can’t laugh, can’t laugh
So I can’t stay here
Can’t forgive, can’t forgive
Growing up
Dance on top of the sickeningly sweet cake
Can’t yield, can’t yield
My happy birthday
Singing, making noise, lights dimmed
Spotlights face the correct side
Laughing, crying, proving to myself
Don’t need an audience
Another dream ending, rotten food
Breaking through the darkness, approaching monsters
Climbing up, betting on a comeback
“I’ll be back”
But I might be found out
Can’t sleep, can’t sleep
So I can’t stay here
Can’t yield, can’t yield
Want to hold onto only what’s mine
Dance on top of the sickeningly sweet cake
Want to praise, want to praise
My happy birthday
Don’t need applause
No sympathy or money
Sunlight doesn’t shine
In the darkness, light a candle
Want to laugh, want to laugh
So I can’t stay here
Can’t yield, can’t yield
Want to hold onto only what’s mine
Dance on top of the sickeningly sweet cake
Want to praise, want to praise
Your happy birthday
Singing, making noise, lights dimmed
Spotlights face the correct side
Laughing, crying, proving to myself
Don’t need an audience
Contemplating the meaning of life
Our candle
Blow it out and go to sleep
The time will come someday
Contemplating the meaning of life
Our rendezvous
Quietly clasping hands
Destroying you
