Best Coast - Birthday lyrics

I haven't felt this way
Since maybe seventh grade
I haven't felt this much sparkle maybe ever
And I used to go to sleep at
Night and pray that I would die
Or that I would wake up and
Be living someone else's life

I wanna thank you
Wanna thank you for believing
I wanna thank you
Wanna thank you for not leaving

Time took me by surprise
And I made it out alive
For my birthday, my birthday
For my birthday, my birthday

If you would've told me a year ago
That I'd be wearing brand new clothes
That I'd be sending thank you notes
And waking up without a headache
I wouldn't havе believed it
I couldn't havе believed it

I wanna thank you
Wanna thank you for believing
I wanna thank you
Wanna thank you for not leaving

Time took me by surprise
And I made it out alive
Here are all the things I couldn't say
Until my birthday, my birthday
Until my birthday, my birthday

I used to go to sleep at night
And pray that I would die
But now I'm feeling better than okay
