Happy birthday!

So, I guess it's officially my birthday now. Here are a few (appropriately depressing) songs that mention this joyous occasion.

• Carissa's Wierd - Heather Rhodes

There will be no tragedies; your lullabies, they are sounding like sirens now. Just like Heather Rhodes when she was seventeen years old, put another cigarette out in the square of my back. Memories might last for years and birthday cakes, they always taste like crap.

• Fiona Apple - Love Ridden

Love ridden, I've looked at you with the focus I gave to my birthday candles. I've wished on the lidded blue flames under your brow and baby, I wished for you.

• The Good Life - Your Birthday Present

Do you wonder how I am or whatever became of me? Do you envision my thin face where the beaten go to drink? I didn't want to cut that cord; you sucked the life right out of me. Do you regret choices you've made? I guess I was a mistake. I guess I'm your big mistake. Well, happy birthday anyway.

• Sondre Lerche - Happy Birthday Girl

I know it may take some time to get this day off your mind.

• Tori Amos - Pretty Good Year

Greg, he writes letters with his birthday pen. Sometimes he's aware that they're drawing him in.
