The Day I Was Born

Got a call from my mother who wishes she was here A couple cards in the post that I’m reading I want the warmth of the summer, the cold too cold to bear The only plus is the sweater, I need it I broke apart from my lover a couple months ago If they were here then I guess I wouldn’t be alone This is the life in the city and that’s the way it goes But it’s a fine excuse just to leave it I hit em up and I asked are you coming over? All I got was a shrug and an I don’t know Everyone I know is hidden away Trying to make their bodies clean again And they don’t want to celebrate Nobody cares this is the day I was born Always the month when parties come to an end The same excuses from every friend Another year and now we’re here again Nobody cares this is the day I was born Another birthday alone I hit a bar in town, give my card to start a tab Every day that we’re here well we’re never getting back So I’ll drink for the confidence coz that’s what I lack And end up talking to strangers and find another plan I end the night in cab, head spinning on my own Watching pointless shit and flicking through my phone Would April be better? I guess I’ll never know I take the keys from my pocket and stumble into home I feel low but I guess I could feel lower I’m heading down and now I’m on a roll Everyone I know is hidden away Trying to make their bodies clean again And they don’t want to celebrate Nobody cares this is the day I was born Always the month when parties come to an end The same excuses from every friend Another year and now we’re here again Nobody cares this is the day I was born Another birthday alone Another birthday alone I feel low but I guess I could feel lower I’m heading down and now I’m on a roll Everyone I know is hidden away Trying to make their bodies clean again And they don’t want to celebrate Nobody cares this is the day I was born Always the month when parties come to an end The same excuses from every friend Another year and now we’re here again Nobody cares this is the day I was born Another birthday alone Another birthday alone
