The Falcon in the Dive (original) (raw)

Here’s to 31,

Here’s to all the milestones I thought I’d be taking

All the glass ceilings I thought I’d be breaking

Here’s all the mistakes and regrets and dreams I left behind

Remembering the dark days when I thought I lost my mind

Raise a glass to the bitter tears I’ve shed

All the things I should have and should said

To all the scars and wounds and every single bruise

To all the disappointments and to the carnage on the news

Here’s to 31

Let’s rock it out, let’s wipe away

All the tears, it’s my birthday

Let’s leave behind all the tears

And make a time for better years

Let’s rock it out, let’s celebrate

I lived long enough to reach this date

And what lies before me, I’m so unsure

But that’s what makes life living for

Here’s to 31

Here’s to all the friends that I found along the years

To every adventure, when I faced my own fears

Here’s to all the laughter from jokes so very dumb

Blow out the candles, look around, the best is yet to come

Here’s to the good fight, to the new dreams that I’ll reach

And to all the lessons, that life will surely teach

Raise a glass to the opportunities I found along the way

Make a toast, laugh and embrace another birthday

Here’s to 31
