Lyrics
Another candle, another year
The clock ticks on, the end draws near
They sing and clap, but do they see
The chains that bind, the cost to be free?
Gifts wrapped up in pretty lies
Blind us to our own demise
We toast to time that slips away
While freedom fades day by day
Happy birthday to you
One year closer to the truth
Happy birthday, dear fool
The party's over all too soon
Blow the candles, make a wish
For peace and love, oh what bliss
But every year we're sold this dream
We wake to find it's not what it might seem
Happy birthday to you
One year closer to the truth
Happy birthday, dear fool
The party's over all too soon
The birthday king upon his throne
Built from waste and broken bones
His empire thrives on others' pain
How long until we break the chain?
Happy birthday to you
One year closer to the truth
Happy birthday, dear fool
The party's over all too soon
