Too Old For Fairy Tales

(album: The Vertigo Trigger - 2023)

They fake their smile
They love to lie
They feed of your imperfections
They pray to heal
While you still bleed
You're a victim of the great deception

Blinding ignorance does mislead us
Wretched mortals, open your eyes

Come under the mistletoe
I eer to know
Bibles in a firefight
To save a life
Wake me with a hammer throw
Your god should know
World's derailed
I'm too old for fairy tales

I know you're hurt
I've seen your scars
But I believe that you have gone too far
You claim you're saved
The light embraced
You'd sell your daughters for holy water

Come under the mistletoe
I eer to know
Bibles in a firefight
To save a life
Wake me with a hammer throw
Your god should know
World's derailed
I'm too old for fairy tales

Your words won't tip the scales
Cause you believe in fairy tales
Your truth is your own veil
You believe in fairy tales

Come under the mistletoe
I eer to know
Bibles in a firefight
To save a life
Wake me with a hammer throw
Your god should know
World's derailed
I'm too old for fairy tales

I'm too old for fairy tales
