It's my birthday, I guess,
And I know people celebrate for less.
But hey, I don't know if you've seen,
But today I turned sixteen.
Halfway through my teenage years,
I can now legally drink beers.
I might go out more with friends,
So my teenage years wil never end.
My life has just begon,
But I feel like a lot is already gone.
Things I can't get back, ever,
Not even by being clever.
Don't get me wrong,
There's also things I've won.
But I lost the thing most worth to me,
The thing that made me young and free.
I lost my childhood, and I won't get it back,
It's now forever something I lack.
It all went so fast, away in a blink,
And that's what's sad to think.
But hey, I still have several years to go,
But we don't really know.
I will be celebrating today,
Today I will enjoy my birthday.
The candles just lit,
"Happy sweet sixteen, kid".
But I'm not, not anymore,
I'm not a kid, not since a year or four.
It's my birthday, my special day,
But I don't like all the attention anyway.
I just turned sixteen, sweet,
I guess for once I won't bleed.
