Say Anything - Try To Remember, Forget lyrics

It is my birthday, it is a new year
I should be happy that I am still here
Light up a new joint, put on an old shirt
Try to remember, forget how my brain works

But, I could read a book
A night before this year
I knew every word, their definitions clear
But now in stealth I check thesaurus
It's become my guilty mistress

So I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause, I know that spark ain't coming back
So I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause, I know that spark ain't coming back

It is my birthday
I've got all my friends here
We haven't been talking as of lately
They've all found new bros and babies
I have smoked away my pride
I have smoked away my pride
There is nothing but the cinders of it inside

But, I believed in more
Than nothingness last year
And under every quiet failure it's still here
Buried breathing under 18 years
Of tragedy and fear

If I could crawl my way out of this grave
I just think of all the time I'd save
And I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause that spark ain't coming back again

Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along
Stereo's playing the same old songs
The same old songs, but we still hum along

And in no time we'll be
Spread across the earth
Donning business suit's to show the
Faceless master what we're worth
From our Huggies to Armani and
It all seems so rehearsed

So I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause, I know that spark ain't coming back
And I heave my breath at burning wax
Cause that spark ain't coming back

It is my birthday
