birthday - iron effigy lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
today is my birthday
come buy me a drink
i’ll watch the ice cubes float
and the olives, they sink

today is my birthday
i’m out on the town
i’m looking for trouble but
i’ll only drown

[chorus 1]
i don’t believe in “the one” they talk about
but i don’t believe that i’ll ever feel the same
i don’t buy into the thought of destiny
but i can’t stop crying whenever i hear your name

[verse 2]
today is my birthday
but i’m home alone
ten months since i kissed you;
two since you’ve been gone

today is my birthday
i’ll sleep on the floor
i’d get into bed, but
you’ve been there before

[chorus 2]
can’t explain why, but you meant so much to me
i know for sure that i’d rather be with you than sleep alone
it’s dark outside, i don’t want to face the light
been quite a ride, but i think this is my night

[verse 3]
“today was his birthday,”
mother spits out through tears
cop smiles, nods, and whispers
“he lived some good years.”

next year on my birthday
i won’t be around
hope you want to see me, but
i’ll be in the ground

[chorus 3]
bet you wish that you hadn’t missed your chance
tried for a while, but i couldn’t catch your glance
why is it now that i’m gone, you want me back?
why is it now that i’m gone, you want me back?

[outro]
today is my birthday
