Lyrics

[INTRO]
Happy birthday, Mr. Van Wine Gaarden,
Celebrations blooming, but your heart feels hardened.
Candles flicker, but the shadows loom,
Wondering why there's a chill in the room.

[VERSE 1]
You wear your armor like a second skin,
Guarded thoughts, where can we begin?
Smiles on the surface, but a storm inside,
Your laughter’s echoing, but there's nowhere to hide.
We reach for connection, but you push away,
Every “Happy Birthday” just drifts astray.
Cortisol surges, like thunder in the night,
Judgment circling, where's the love and light?

[CHORUS]
Happy birthday, Mr. Van Wine Gaarden,
Why so cold and guarded?
Hearts entwined, but in a frozen frame,
Tell me, do you fear the warmth in the flame?
Happy birthday, we celebrate, it's true,
But the smile's a mask, what’s hidden from view?

[VERSE 2]
You’ve built high walls with a thousand bricks,
Doubts and worries, your emotional fix.
Your party's buzzing, but you're miles away,
Floating in thoughts that lead you astray.
Like winter's breath, it’s tough to break through,
Searching for meaning in the things that you do.
I’m reaching out, let the barriers fall,
On this special day, I’ll be here through it all.

[CHORUS]
Happy birthday, Mr. Van Wine Gaarden,
Why so cold and guarded?
Hearts entwined, but in a frozen frame,
Tell me, do you fear the warmth in the flame?
Happy birthday, we celebrate, it's true,
But the smile's a mask, what’s hidden from view?

[BRIDGE]
Underneath the surface, there's a heart so bright,
Waiting for the sunrise to dissolve the night.
Take a chance, my friend, let this joy begin,
You’re more than a fortress, let the love roll in.

[CHORUS]
Happy birthday, Mr. Van Wine Gaarden,
Let the warmth replace the cold, feel the pardon.
Hearts entwined, let the laughter play,
In this beautiful moment, throw the fear away!
Happy birthday,
