Birthdays aren't special (Remix) Lyrics

Used to wake up with a smile on my face

Counting candles on the cake, feeling grace

Friends and laughter filling up the room

Now it's just another day that passes too soon

Birthdays aren't special anymore

Just another date I've seen before

I light the candles on my own

While everyone else forgets to phone

I remember all the plans I would make

Surprising you with gifts and a cake

Stayed up late to decorate your space

But when it's mine, there's not a trace

Birthdays aren't special anymore

Just another date I've seen before

I blow out candles all alone

Wishing someone would have shown

Maybe I've been giving too much

Hoping someday you'd feel the rush

But expectations lead to silent nights

No balloons, no birthday lights

Birthdays aren't special anymore

Just another day I've seen before

I'll make a wish for something new

A day that's just for me to get through

Used to wake up with a smile on my face

Now it's just another empty space
