Birthday Card by Tomm Ooo Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm solemn lost in guilt
But I can hear you breathing behind the camera
In my childhood films
I can’t stand my own face
'Cause there's an anger in my eyes
An anger that you put in place
Pushing down, against the hate I feel in my gut
Stricken down like your fingers around my throat
Oh
[Chorus]
I got your birthday card, well done
You couldn’t spell my fucking name right on the front
And you were spilling hatred from your tongue
So would you tell me again, what you know of love?
'Cause you said
You still love me, but I don't want your love
[Verse 2]
It's took four years but
I think I've almost got you out
Spilling my guts, every two weeks
Or just hidden thoughts spoke aloud
But, I no longer hide in the hidden corners of the crowd
I doubt you would recognise me now, but, oh, but
[Chorus]
I got your birthday card, well done
You couldn't even spell my name right on the front
And you were spilling hatred from your tongue
So please tell me again, what you know of love?
'Cause you said
You still love me, but I don't want your love
I'm solemn lost in guilt
But I can hear you breathing behind the camera
In my childhood films
I can’t stand my own face
'Cause there's an anger in my eyes
An anger that you put in place
Pushing down, against the hate I feel in my gut
Stricken down like your fingers around my throat
Oh
[Chorus]
I got your birthday card, well done
You couldn’t spell my fucking name right on the front
And you were spilling hatred from your tongue
So would you tell me again, what you know of love?
'Cause you said
You still love me, but I don't want your love
[Verse 2]
It's took four years but
I think I've almost got you out
Spilling my guts, every two weeks
Or just hidden thoughts spoke aloud
But, I no longer hide in the hidden corners of the crowd
I doubt you would recognise me now, but, oh, but
[Chorus]
I got your birthday card, well done
You couldn't even spell my name right on the front
And you were spilling hatred from your tongue
So please tell me again, what you know of love?
'Cause you said
You still love me, but I don't want your love
