Dying on your birthday
Its the hardest one to make
With needles shoved
Inside your birthday cake
Walking like the dead
For your brittle bones will break
Courting lonely thoughts of suicide
Running out of time
As you watch it melt away
Your whole life has been lived on this stage
People love to watch
Other creatures die
So they gather all around you and they stare
Singing all your sorrows
As you utter your last prayers
For the black clouds are hanging over head
Its three o'clock on Tuesday
And youre heading to your wake
But all your friends have been waiting for days
Asking you the questions
That you havent strength to take
You reveal your weakness by mistake
Running down the aisle
As you try to make your way
Your whole life has been put on display
People love to watch
Other creatures die
So they gather all around you and they stare
Singing all your sorrows
As you utter your last prayers
For the black clouds are hanging over head
For the black clouds are hanging over head
For the black clouds are hanging over head
