Happy Birthday to you
The Glance of brown frosting
With the words "Happy 8th Birthday Xxxxxxx"
As they sang Happy Birthday to you
Seems so cheerful, I thought
I was wrong!
Nothing was cheerful after that.
Voices going at each other
like a warzone
The Yank to the head
so quickly, the pain went away too slow
Red and Blue lights flashing outside
Becoming Clear that nothing will be the same.
Watching tears fall off my face
As someone I love walks away from me
Slowly, the red and blue lights fade away
The warzone will always haunt me.
