Lyrics Jens Lekman

Jens Lekman

Are Birthdays Happy

Once I was a bully

I couldn't stand weakness

in somebody´s side

to understand it fully

you gotta be haunted

by the same black dogs as I

and spend your days worrying

that you never see the surface

Once again it's February

and it's time to celebrate our birthdays

but are birthdays happy

or are they just countdown to death?

is there need to worry

there might not be much time left?

I haven't lived my life yet

Then it happens

it just blows your mind

the madness of your life
