This song came into my head at a really weird time. At that time I was hanging out with people that my friends were friends with. People I knew mainly through my friend who was this guy I liked, almost.. endlessly, throughout many years. And he sort of knew it. Even though we had become very good friends. I remember once long before this, he caught me crying in his bathroom because he refused to kiss me as a gamble that then I would make out with his friend. And I ran to his room and cried on the bed. He came in, in the dark and said 'you know i just dont like you that way' he tried to make me feel better.
Another thing is that I've tried to kiss him and he's turned away from it probably about three times before.
But by this time in our lives we had become so sweet and open with eachother. We had almost fully admitted our like, in friendly manners in cars. Then that one night at the party I saw into his emerald glowing eyes and I knew he was happy with me, but it wasn't real. "She said I love you and it suddenly clicked
That she was only saying what she wanted me to hear
And I said
Please don't lie to me Mary"
.
So I see that he would pretend to be in love with me, even if he really wasn't. It's so sweet of him to do that I almost cry.
While at the same time it also goes both ways. Not that I can imagine my friend crying. But I know to a certain extent I am over him, and have been through out all of the years we got to know eachother and I tried to get him with me still. So the mary is also me, pretending that no matter what I do I will always love him. When the truth is that I've gotten over him long ago and I really can't stop loving others.
To end this long personal message, I'd like to admit that I have been studying the secret language of birthdays for about five years now, and I know every day by heart. I literally celebrate many days. As if they are my own.
And the last line is about the person not being able to really face the truth. The whole song is about that. And feeling utterly and hopelessly serious in needing to face it.- You have one birthday. You don't love me. - False!
