THE DAY WHEN EVERYTHING GOES WRONG

It’s a sick tradition-

But a tradition nonetheless-

Where the girl cries on her birthday.

It’s a sick tradition-

But a tradition nonetheless-

Where the girl’s excitement gets crushed.

It’s a sick tradition-

But a tradition nonetheless-

Where the girl cannot wish for something different.

It’s a sick tradition-

But a tradition nonetheless-

Where everything goes wrong, and yet,

It’s no one’s fault.
