Birthday Girl

by delikately

it’s my birthday again what a thrill the balloons deflate before they rise do i scare them or do i repel hard to tell same thing oh well i’m the queen of a party that’s already done party of one my destiny happy birthday to me happy birthday to the girl no one sees no clap no confetti falls put on a hat felt like a clown i’m alone no one’s here just me and my imaginary friend guess i’ll eat this cake alone again happy birthday to me just me just me my imaginary friend and i are the only ones here “why so serious?” it teases then sighs i shrug it’s a skill keeping tears inside i’m the life of the party where life’s overrun pity party the joke’s on me happy birthday to me happy birthday to the girl no one sees no clap no confetti falls put on a hat felt like a clown i’m alone no one’s here just me and my imaginary friend guess i’ll eat this cake alone again happy birthday to me just me just me another year same cake no taste frosting melts all go to waste another year same cake same me twenty-six candles drip like tears yeah i’d blow it out but what’s the point i made a wish but the stars were late mm-hmm happy birthday to me happy birthday to the girl no one sees no one sees folded my arms like a party trick no one cares no one cares but hey it’s all good just a shadow at her own party the balloons all sigh like they’re over it tarpaulin’s sagging like my self-esteem happy birthday to me just me just me
