It’s Not My Birthday

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Well, the rain falls down without my help, I'm afraid And my lawn gets wet though I've withheld my consent When this gray world crumbles like a cake I'll be hanging from the hope that I'll never see that recipe again [Verse 2] As I walk, I think about a new way to walk As I think, I'm using up the time left to think And this train keeps rolling off the track Tryna act like something else Tryna go where it's been uninvited [Chorus] It's not my birthday, it's not today It's not my birthday, so why do you lunge out at me? When the word comes down, "Never more will be around" Though I'll wish we were there, I was less than we could bear And I'm not the only dust my mother raised [Verse 3] So I'm rattling the bars around this drink tank Discreetly I should pour through the keyhole or evaporate completely But there'd be no percentage and there'd be no proof And the sound upon the roof is only water [Verse 1] And the rain falls down without my help, I'm afraid And my lawn gets wet though I've withheld my consent When this grey world crumbles like a cake I'll be hanging from the hope that I'll never see that recipe again [Chorus] It's not my birthday, it's not today It's not my birthday, so why do you lunge out at me? When the word comes down "Never more will be around" Though I'll wish we were there, I was less than we could bear And I'm not the only dust my mother raised I am not the only dust my mother raised
