lyrics

on my birthday it was warm when i went outside
december’s usually cold but it just can’t decide
on my birthday i figured i’d fall for you
but i guess i just didn’t want to
and it’s true
that its me
and the way i want my life to be
we’ll be friends
if that’s fine
‘cause i never really had the time
for love

on my birthday i wanted to be alone
so i left my house and didn’t check my phone
on my birthday it was warm when i went outside
i guess texas just can’t decide
and i know
that unlike me
the land doesn’t need to know who to be
a small problem
nothing more
i just hope that i’m not boring you
and that i’m heard

on my birthday i was tired of all my friends
so i ignored my plans and decided not to pretend
that i was happy and not down like i had found
but silence has never seemed so loud
but it’s fine
i’ve got me
and at least i know where i want to be
by myself
where i’m heard
at least i don’t have to be with you
to be bored

Takes me back to my high school classroom during the days of binging Inio Asano's old manga scanlations before anything was licensed. At that time, I was discovering many kinds of Asian shoegaze, but I've never heard anything like this. Makes me think of Pasteboard, Supecar, and Midnight Pingpong a bit, and it's funny bc the first two I listen have blue album covers too. Lu
