your voice it might say 'no'

but the heart has a heart of its own

It's not your birthday anymore

there's no need to be kind to you

and the will to see you smile and belong has now gone

It's not your birthday anymore

and so it must be taken

it cannot be given

and so it must be taken

All the gifts that they gave can't compare in any way to the love I am now giving to you right here right now on the floor
