Birthdays

We only text when it's a birthday I know you probably like it that way Party hats, your favorite cake, you're not even here to celebrate that I'm tryna grow up for you Your silence is louder than the song Close my eyes and wishing but I took too long The flame is gone So sweet sixteen I guess, maybe you just forget to text You're probably busy I know what you're like But surely if you wanted to you wouldn't mind But it's okay baby, I've accepted that you won't say 'Happy birthday' to me And all my friends keep saying stop checking your phone Got a room full of people but i still feel alone Maybe it's time that i let go, but what if we could be great and we'd never know Your silence is louder than the song Close my eyes and wishing but I took too long The flame is gone So sweet sixteen I guess, maybe you just forget to text You're probably busy I know what you're like But surely if you wanted to you wouldn't mind But it's okay baby, I've accepted that you won't say You were meant to be here Dancing in the dark, instead I'm falling apart A simple text would have done the job But it's time for me to grow up and move on So sweet sixteen I guess, maybe you just forget to text You're probably busy I know what you're like But surely if you wanted to you wouldn't mind But it's okay baby, I've accepted that you won't say 'Happy birthday' to me
