Passenger-------
I really should feel happy
Today is my birthday,
And thanks for the best wishes
I guess I should say
In truth, I feel nothing
Just a little bit of delusion,
As I've achieved only a blank
In this 40 years of confusion
In my mind, I'm falling
From the light in to the black,
As an annual day repeats itself
And there's no turning back
I've gained nothing in hindsight
But I lost myself in parts,
Literally limbs and my sanity
Have been torn and ripped apart
I used to like birthdays
Now I just see failure,
I'll join in with the merriment
But feel like a total stranger
I know what I want
To be free from the chains,
That wraps around my mind
And makes cravings go insane
But I shall tick the box of age
Nod to becoming an older man,
But as to celebrating the day
I just don't give a damn.
