Birthday Song
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Table for two
Silence that grew
Birthday card, just won’t do
She walks away, I hear her say
Thanks for the perfect day.”
So I just choke on mental notes
That I keep making to myself
Someday I will write
Another birthday song
It won’t be the type
That you have to sing along
The first word won’t be “happy”
The last line still
Ends with “you”
Who needs a song that’s
Only sometimes true?
The party ends and she begins
With “its nice to know you”
As we celebrate another day
Of “its like I told you”
Well I keep thinking to myself
I keep thinking to myself
This is not for me
Headaches and mistakes
Are all I can remember
Too late and no thanks
And “return to sender”
So please don't make me
Sing a song, so please don't
Make me sing along
Because this don't feel
Like happiness
