Happy...Oops, You Are Dead...Never Mind

A Birthday Wish

Your birth brought me joy
Your death has destroyed my world.
Wishes don't come true.
Blow out the candles
You are never coming back.
Everyone go home.

Bones shake, it's lonely it's late
Footsteps, echo, glimmers of hate
Howling candles are blowing a sound
Why can't I tell you it's all going down?
And there's a sadness deep down in my soul
Hard times just won't let me go

I need you to help me through
I can't lay these ghosts to rest
Though I'm scared, and it's dark
Oh, I know it's all a mess,  their faceless
And headstrong, I got them starring back at me
But my will still strong, I won't let them take me in
I won't let them take me in

Angels crying, lost in shame
Demons laughing, playin' the game
And there's a sadness deep down in my soul
Hard times just won't let me go

I need you to help me through
I can't lay these Ghosts to rest
And though I'm scared and it's dark,
Oh, I know it's all a mess, their faceless
And they're strong, I got them starring back at me
But my will still strong, I won't let them take me in

Days roll on from dust to dawn for all the time, all the time
My faith is grown, the seeds we've sown, alright, alright
There's a sadness deep down in my soul
I need you to help me through
I can't lay these ghosts to rest
And though I'm scared, and it's dark
Oh, I know it's all a mess, their faceless
And headstrong, I got them starring back at me
But my will is still strong, I won't let them take me in
I won't let them take me in
I won't let them take me in
I won't let them take me in
