The Day I Was Born

Got a call from my mother who wishes that she was hereCouple of cards in the post that I'm readin'I want the warmth of the summer, the cold too cold to bearThe only plus is the sweater I neededI broke apart from my lover a couple months agoIf they were here, then I guess I wouldn't be aloneThis is the life in the city and that's the way it goesBut it's a fine excuse just to leave itI hit her mom and I asked, "Arе you comin' over?"And all I got was a shrugAnd then, "I don't know"And evеryone I know is hidden awayTryna make their bodies clean againAnd they don't want to celebrateNobody cares this is the day I was bornAlways the month when parties come to an endThe same excuses from every friendAnother year and now we're here againNobody cares this is the day I was bornAnother birthday aloneLa-la-lay, la-la-layAnother birthday aloneLa-la-lay, la-la-layI hit a bar in town, get my account, start a tavEveryday that we're hereWell, we're never gettin' backAnd so I drink for the confidence 'cause that's what I lackAnd end up talkin' to strangers and findin' another plaqueI am denyin' in the carpet, spinnin' on my ownWatchin' pointless shit and flickin' through my phoneAnd would April be better? I guess I'll never knowI'll take the keys from my pocket and stumble into homeAnd I feel lowBut I guess I could feel lowerI'm headin' down and now I'm on a rowAnd everyone I know is hidden awayTryna make their bodies clean againAnd they don't want to celebrateNobody cares this is the day I was bornAlways the month when parties come to an endThe same excuses from every friendAnother year and now we're here againNobody cares this is the day I was bornAnother birthday aloneLa-la-lay, la-la-layAnother birthday aloneLa-la-lay, la-la-layI feel lowBut I guess I could feel lowerI'm headin' down and now I'm on a rowAnd everyone I know is hidden awayTryna make their bodies clean againAnd they don't want to celebrateNobody cares this is the day I was bornAlways the month when parties come to an endThe same excuses from every friendAnother year and now we're here againNobody cares this is the day I was bornAnother birthday aloneLa-la-lay, la-la-layAnother birthday aloneLa-la-lay, la-la-lay
