Happy Deathday - Ron Gallo

And I was born in paradise

New Jersey six at night

Look at me now, mom

And in one breath of life

I finally realised that heaven is a state of mind

Before everything had names

Before I wanted things

Before I became a slave

Before everything split in two

Right and wrong and me and you

It was only one thing

Now boy, what’s wrong with you?

Don’t you remember what I gave to you?

Expectations you could never live up to

I’ve gone to many schools

Developed skills and many tools

Enough to no longer know the truth

How hard we have to work

For a false sense of worth

Only to let it all go

When the alien came to visit me

The first thing that he said to me was:

''What the fuck happened to all of you?''

A bunch of genuine fakes on an endless chase

Of only imaginary things

You’re all in so deep you can’t hear or see

Yourself and everything

Look where, look where

Fear has gotten you

Look where

Fear has gotten you

Look where

Fear has gotten you

Look where

Fear has gotten you

Happy birthday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

To everything you know

Happy birthday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

To everything you know

Happy birthday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

To everything you know

Happy birthday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

To everything you know

Happy birthday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

Happy deathday to you

Happy birthday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday

Happy deathday, happy deathday
