Happy Birthday

Another year gone by Yeah, who gives a darn? I'm drowning in a sea of a hundred and fifty happy birthday wishes From a hundred forty nine strangers. Even the special ones don't seem so great When all you can think about is the void The void you feel when you realize not who's there but who's not there. Who didn't I see? I see a hundred forty nine strangers pass by When the one person I truly want isn't ever here. So here's to another year May it be exactly like ones past. And here's to all the same fears My only friends that seem to last.
