Happy Birthday To The Guy In The Mirror

Woke up to my own reflection

Bedhead crown

Still I grin

Coffee cup

A crooked candle

Singin’ “look at where you’ve been”

Every scar and every stumble

Got me standing here today

Wrap the past up like a present

Time to blow the doubt away

Happy birthday to the guy in the mirror

Look at you

You made it here (oh yeah)

Another year of fighting through the fear

So raise a glass to every tear and cheer

Happy birthday to the guy in the mirror

You’re the one who stayed when it got rough

Today I’m learning how to call it love

Happy birthday to myself

Text from mom

She says she’s proud

Friends are typing “don’t grow up”

But the quiet feels like freedom

As I pour my own refills

All the times I felt like failing

Still I’m lighting up this room

Little wish stuck on my tongue now

I’ll make space for something new

Happy birthday to the guy in the mirror

Look at you

You made it here (hey!)

Another year of fighting through the fear

So raise a glass to every tear and cheer

Happy birthday to the guy in the mirror

You’re the one who stayed when it got tough

Today I’m learning how to call it love

Happy birthday to myself

I don’t need a crowd to scream my name

Just a promise I won’t stay the same

I’ll be kinder to the face I see

Yeah

This year I show up for me (for me)

Happy birthday to the guy in the mirror

Look at you

You made it here

Another year of fighting through the fear

So raise a glass to every tear and cheer

Happy birthday to the guy in the mirror

You’re the one who stayed when it got tough

Today I’m learning how to call it love

Happy birthday to myself (to myself)

Happy birthday to myself
