Birthday

[00:05.80] You would always show up late
[00:09.97] A deck of excuses in your hands
[00:14.55] I would be the first to claim I didn't mind
[00:18.33] I understand
[00:21.54]
[00:23.60] I put all my songs into a tape
[00:28.05] All my words you held inside your hand
[00:32.61] And I don't think you ever even listened to them once
[00:36.67] I understand
[00:41.11] Waiting around, still half way hopeful that you'll show
[00:45.76] You've said you'd call, of course you won't, I should've known
[00:51.48] You're not here again, I'm not surprised
[00:55.99] I hate how long it took to realise
[01:00.37] You don't remember or you just don't care
[01:04.90] Today's my birthday
[01:08.63] And you're still not there
[01:13.51] You're still not there
[01:19.11] Sat cross-legged by the phone
[01:22.78] It's two a.m. the candles are burned out
[01:27.50] And I could pretend that it's okay, I understand
[01:31.75] But I don't
[01:36.05] Waited around, I should've known you wouldn't show
[01:40.35] And I'm just a fool who spent her birthday all alone
[01:46.25] You're not here again, I'm not surprised
[01:50.78] I hate how long it took to realise
[01:55.52] You don't remember or you just don't care
[01:59.72] Today's my birthday
[02:03.53] And you're still not there
[02:08.48] You're still not there
[02:13.73] I never asked for anything more than one "happy birthday"
[02:20.02]
[02:22.70] I never asked for anything more than "happy birthday"
[02:31.93] You're not here again, I'm not surprised
[02:36.53] I hate how long it took to realise
[02:40.78] That you don't remember, do you? Or you don't care
[02:45.57] Today's my birthday
[02:49.35] And you're still not there
[02:54.09] You're still not there
[02:58.83] You're still not there
[03:03.27] You're still not there
[03:07.06]
