lyrics

02. BIRTHDAY

So many ways to start a fire
She came in from the west
and burnt us to the ground
I never knew you’d fall for that
Already so far from me
Oh where was your head at

Now it’s your birthday, how can I forget
The April date that’s so ingrained
Like Halloween or Christmas Day
So it’s your birthday but I’m so far from you
The cards we gave now thrown away
The words untrue

This year’s gone by in such a blur
You say that you’ve been jet-lagged
but are you tired of her?
And I met someone who makes me smile
but I keep my cards close to me now
That everything feels fragile
Now it’s your birthday, how can I forget
The April date that’s so ingrained
Like Halloween or Christmas Day
So it’s your birthday but I’m so far from you
The cards we gave now thrown away
The words untrue
