I Think Lyrics Can Say It Better Than Words

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhH5pZqrtc4]

Everyone wishes for happiness
Being no different myself, there's no way I can escape it
Wishing to not end up unhappy
We scrambled for the only seat available

Unable to even mourn
The lives that weren't chosen
I'm still here today
Living shamelessly... singing shamelessly...
Apologising to someone whose face I can't even see

My mum and dad fell in love
Now 20 years have passed since I was born
How many people have shown me love?
How many people have I hurt along the way?
I can't... I can't answer that

Someone who'd wish to be chosen
Might have been able to see the colour of the light
But I'm still searching for it today
As I venture back and forth-again and again-
Between wanting to die, and wanting to live

Today is someone's birthday
But it's also the anniversary of your death
I'm sure I'll remember it suddenly
Until I completely forget one day

Inhaling my first breath
After thinking about dying, but stopping myself
I'm singing this song

Even if there's nowhere I particularly want to go...
Even if I don't know the reason I was born...
At least... at least...
At least... at least... at least...

Ohh, Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday.
Happy birthday happy birthday
Ahh, Happy Birthday to you!
Unhappy birthday to you
Ohh, Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday.
Happy birthday happy birthday
Ahh, Happy Birthday to you!
Unhappy birthday to you

Unable to even mourn
The lives that weren't chosen
I'm still wishing today:
"Please, keep on living!" "Please, don't die!"
I scream the words again and again

I'm here with the people that wish to be chosen
But the world still continues on today
I'm still searching for a place to belong
As I lose my way-again and again-between

Wanting to die, and wanting to live
I hope each and every life that's born
Can feel love, at the very least
So they can one day learn to be kind...
So that a kind morning can someday visit this world...

Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday.
Happy birthday happy birthday
Ahh, Happy Birthday to you!
Unhappy birthday to you
Happy Birthday. Happy Birthday.
Happy birthday happy birthday
Ahh, Happy Birthday to you!
Unhappy birthday to you
