Alone On My Birthday

No decoration on, no cake Nobody remembered this important date Guitar, pen, brain start to contemplate They're the only 3 here For this joyous celebration Because I'm self-absorbed, I get upset Mad at the world, how could they forget ? I was alone at birth, I'll be alone at death Hope I won't be alone at my final destination Never really thought it would've happened to me But that night I say by the telephone Never really thought it would've happened to me I spent my birthday all alone Birth's a costume with a genetic script We play some role that we'd like to fit And never admit that we're full of it And live life in some sort of dazed hallucination I'll never lament because life is brief Our bodies are changing like the autumn leaf It's said that time is the greatest thief And beats and cheats this entire population But it's alright, home tonight, just suits me fine I don't mind spending time with my mind all alone
