It Never Stopped

It Never Stopped

It never stopped, the yelling, the screaming, it never stopped

They put a cake in front of me , wish wish make a wish, all smiling faces

Like a siren my wish standing alone in the corner, beckoned me.

It never stopped , the yelling outside, inside my head.

I blow the eight candles on my cake, the candles on my cake

It never stopped, the screaming

Enveloped in a thick caustic air I move toward my fervent wish

The yelling never stopped

I reached the corner wrapping my arms around, my arms around, denial

It was ok, happy birthday, to me
