Fathers and Fairytales Lyrics

I’m holding onto a grudge like

The handlebars on the bike you never taught me to ride

This isn’t an apology

Nor do I want you to forgive me

All this to say I’ve moved on

But because of you

I’m trying to cure

Something that I’m not sure I have

In fear that I’ve inherited

It from my dad

I’ve exchanged fear with reason

And now I’m at the bar

Some things you can’t cure

Some things you just can’t cure

The power and rage

That fills my feeble heart

And leaves your face on the board

With my fist full of darts

So even when me thoughts

Drive me away from you

You’re standing there in the mirror

Of my rear view so

I’m trying to cure

Something that I’m not sure I have

In fear that I’ve inherited

It from my dad

I’ve exchanged fear with reason

And now I’m at the bar

Some things you can’t cure

Some things you just can’t cure

I’ve always dreamed of

Fathers and fairytales

And how love stories never fail

The prince always gets a princess

Yeah your father always gets a mistress

He’s a drug addict with an awful habit

In a world full of turtles

Yeah he’s a rabbit

So I’m grabbing onto that lucky paw

I’m shaking it around

For good luck

Cause I’ve never had faith enough in you

I’ve never had faith enough in you

So I’m trying to cure

Something that I’m not sure I have

In fear that I’ve inherited

It from my dad

I’ve exchanged fear with reason

And now I’m at the bar

Some things you can’t cure

Some things you just can’t cure

I’ve never had faith enough in me

I’ve never had faith enough in me

Please someone have faith enough in me

Cause I’ve never, had faith enough in me
