IT'S TWO IN THE MORNING
AND MY BRAIN IS BACK TO SCREAMING.
YOUR BIRTHDAY IS TOMORROW.
TONIGHT IS WORSE THAN EVER.

A MONTH FROM TOMORROW
IT'LL BE MY BIRTHDAY.
AND I KNOW YOU WON'T BE
HAVING THESE THOUGHTS A
MONTH FROM TODAY.
NOT ABOUT ME AT LEAST,
BUT MAYBE ABOUT YOUR NEW GIRL.

SHE'S BEAUTIFUL,
REALLY.
THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF ME.
SHE'S GOT BIG BLUE EYES,
NOT LIKE MY BROWN ONES.
HER LONG BLONDE HAIR
IS NEW FROM MINE,
LONG BROWN.

I GUESS I SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING.
THE WAY YOU LOOKED AT HER WAS DIFFERENT
THAN THE WAY YOU LOOKED AT ME.
AND NOW I KNOW THE TRUTH,
THAT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY,
I'LL NEVER BE THE ONE WHO OWNS YOUR HEART.
