about

More aftermath, from a different POV. Perhaps the saddest song about a birthday ever.

lyrics

Tomorrow I will be seventeen And it won't be a happy day
Since you've been in jail all my friends keep away from me…
People came to you for advice You took an oath to uphold the law
Little did we know you had one fatal flaw

You made us fall out of grace
Then someone else took our places

Mom will make a birthday cake
and make sure there's a card from you
With some apology for the hell I've been through

You made us fall fall out of grace
Wept as we fell on our faces
Tears that do nothing to heal
All that remains of our feelings

Blow the candles out
Make a wish of my own
That some day you'll be home and free

You made us fall fall out of grace
Left us to dig through the traces
Taken somewhere far away
Not even here to sing Happy Birthday
