lyrics

I walk alone
I walk away
I walk towards the sun
Fighting back tears
And wasting my years away

Another year rolls round
We celebrate
Without the light in our eyes
What's the mistake we've made
For a moment we're not afraid

Then it's back
Almost worst than a panic attack
And I'm trying hard to fight it but the demons won't stop crying
And I'm just thinking is this it?

So let's blow out the candles again
Cause sometimes your birthday is something you dread
Cause it's one year closer to death

Family gatherings
Toasting all of my favourite things
I feel so alive on the outside

Now it's here
Is it worse than I have always feared
And I'm trying hard to fight it but the demons won't stop crying
And I'm just thinking is this it?

So let's blow out the candles again
Cause sometimes your birthday is something you dread
Cause it's one year closer to death

Time slips away
What can I say?
Time slips away
What can I say?

Once I was 13 and planning out my teenage years
But soon I'll be 17 and thinking god how did I get here
Cause I didn't make memories
I always thought twice
They say you only live once but
I didn't even try when I had time
I acted like it wasn't even mine
Cause then I'll be 50
I'll be paying my taxes
With no one to raise
Not one soul I can laugh with
I'll show up with nothing
Again at your window
And if you don't come out
I'll be playing this song alone

So let's blow out the candles again
Cause sometimes your birthday is something you dread Cause it's one year closer to death

Time slips away
What can I say?
Time slips away
What can I say?
Time slips away
What can I say?
