Hate My Birthday

It's my birthday
I guess I should feel glad
but each year I feel more sad
and as I'm old enough
don't need to hide behind a mask

Well I hate every time of year
but especially this one is full of fear
as always I'm going to end up in tears
cause I have to keep it real
Well I hate my birthday it's clear

Don't want useless presents
they make me feel guilt
when I know that I can't give
I don't really need anything
Just my loneliness and peace
not even cakes and sweets

Well I hate every time of year
but especially this one is full of fear
as always I'm going to end up in tears
cause I have to keep it real
Well I hate my birthday it's clear

You try to make me laugh
and I'm grateful for that
but I don't celebrate
don't really have the strength

Well I hate every time of year
but especially this one is full of fear
as always I'm going to end up in tears
cause I have to keep it real
Well I hate my birthday it's clear
