21 Candles

(album: Therapy - 2023)

Days turned to months, turned to years
Hoping I would find ya
An irrational dream
Right before you disappeared
You had to set fire to the family tree
Instead of leaving me with all these questions
You should have only been a fucking parent

Days turned to months turned to years
Hoping I would find you

I burned 21 candles
Wishing that you would come back but
You must have cursed me with bad luck
Think I'm done wasting my breath
Cause on every birthday
Missing you hurts in the worst way
21 candles, after 21 candles
I am done wasting my breath

I'm glad we met
Cause that showed me we got nothing
Nothing in common
Just go ahead and keep calling me the problem
I put the nail in the coffin
Instead of leaving me with all these questions
You should have only been a fucking parent
I'm glad we met
Cause that showed me we got nothing

I burned 21 candles
Wishing that you would come back but
You must have cursed me with bad luck
Think I'm done wasting my breath
Cause on every birthday
Missing you hurts in the worst way
Oh 21 candles, after 21 candles

I burned 21 candles
Wishing that you would come back but
You must have cursed me with bad luck
Think I'm done wasting my breath
Oh, cause on every birthday
Missing you hurts in the worst way
Oh 21 candles, after 21 candles
I am done wasting my breath

I'm done, I'm done, I'm done
I'm done, I'm done, I'm done
I'm done, I'm done, I'm done
I'm done, I'm done, I'm done

Hey Dad, I'm not sure if you'll ever hear this
I've tried to reach you
But I guess you blocked me again
Happy Father's Day
