I'm all sad poems and broken songs It figures it's my birthday I'm panic attacks and sleepless nights And all the words I won't say. Things should be normal, shouldn't they? Things should be okay; it's my birthday. Seventeen isn't going the way it should Can I have another try? Seventeen isn't right, right now Somebody hit rewind. Things should be fine today Things should be right; it's my birthday. Nothing revolves around my birth I know that, I swear I do But all I asked was to be happy When the day was through. Things aren't right, are they? Even though it's my birthday. Seventeen began with listless apathy Seventeen began with broken promises Seventeen began with fake smiles and laughs Seventeen began with hurt friends. Seventeen may go away I don't want it here. Seventeen isn't what I like I'll try again next year. Until then I'll be wondering How seventeen began so wrong It's my birthday, today I'm all sad poems and broken songs.

Birthday
I'm all sad poems and broken songs It figures it's my birthday I'm panic attacks and sleepless nights And all the words I won't say. Things should be normal, shouldn't they? Things should be okay; it's my birthday. Seventeen isn't going the way it should Can I have another try? Seventeen isn't right, right now Somebody hit rewind. Things should be fine today Things should be right; it's my birthday. Nothing revolves around my birth I know that, I swear I do But all I asked was to be happy When the day was through. Things aren't right, are they? Even though it's my birthday. Seventeen began with listless apathy Seventeen began with broken promises Seventeen began with fake smiles and laughs Seventeen began with hurt friends. Seventeen may go away I don't want it here. Seventeen isn't what I like I'll try again next year. Until then I'll be wondering How seventeen began so wrong It's my birthday, today I'm all sad poems and broken songs.
