Your voice, it might say no


But the heart has a will of its own

Your voice, it might say no


But the heart has a heart of its own, own




It's not your birthday anymore


There's no need to be kind to you


And the will to see you smile and belong

Has now gone





It's not your birthday anymore

Did you really think we meant


All of those syrupy, sentimental things


That we said?




It cannot be given


And so it must be taken

It cannot be given


And so it must be taken




All of the gifts that they gave can't compare in any way


To the love I am now giving to you


Right here, right now on the floor




All of the gifts that they gave can't compare in any way


To the love I am now giving to you

Right here, right now on the floor





It's not your birthday anymore

There's no need to be kind to you


And the will to see you smile and belong


Has now gone




It's not your birthday anymore


Did you really think we meant

All of those syrupy, sentimental things


That we said yesterday?
