Fairytale
Kiri T Lyrics

I thought I'd have it figured out by now
I expected to have my life all figured out by now, but I don't.

I'm sorry that I'm sleeping on your couch
I apologize for imposing on you and sleeping on your couch.

It's just that I'm alone and freaking out and got nobody to call
I feel alone and anxious, and I have no one to turn to for help.

I'm sorry if I'm acting like a bum
I apologize if I seem like a lazy and unproductive person.

Among the club of the unfortunate ones
I feel like I'm part of a group of people who are struggling in life.

You'll always be the first to cheer me up
You are always the first one to lift my spirits and make me feel better.

To tell me I'm enough
You reassure me that I am worthy and good enough as I am.

Is there a savior and I'll be okay?
I wonder if there is someone or something that can save me from my troubles and if everything will be okay.

I blame it on the fairy tales and plays
I attribute my unrealistic expectations and fantasies to the stories and entertainment I've been exposed to.

I'm dancing to the beat of my continuous mistakes
I am repeating my mistakes and following a pattern that is not working for me, almost like I am dancing to a rhythm of error.

How do I explain
I struggle to put into words and describe what I'm going through and feeling.

I just wanna be okay with the way I'm made
I desire to accept and feel comfortable with who I am as a person.

Wanna be brave with the steps I take
I want to be courageous and confident when making decisions and taking action.

Don't wanna be afraid of change
I don't want to fear or resist change and the uncertainty that comes with it.

Don't wanna be all jaded
I don't want to become pessimistic and bitter towards life and people.

I also wanna hear you say
It is important to me to hear from you that you also accept yourself for who you are.

That you're okay with the way you're made
I want you to also feel comfortable and confident in yourself and the person you are.

We could be brave with the steps we take
If we support each other, we can be brave when making decisions and taking actions in our lives.

Let's not fall into hate
We shouldn't let negativity and hate consume us and our relationships with others.

It's a leap of faith
Taking risks and moving forward can be scary and uncertain, but it is necessary to have faith in the process.

Together we're well on our way
If we work together and support each other, we can make progress towards our goals and be successful.

Things aren't getting better I'm not gonna lie
I must be honest; things are not improving as I had hoped.

Nothing's private with the satellites
In today's society, privacy is hard to come by with the use of technology and surveillance.

Pretty soon we'd be replaced by bots
Technology is progressing rapidly, and it is possible that humans will be replaced by machines in certain areas of work and life.

The end is near
The future seems uncertain and possibly ominous.

What have we got?
What do we have left in these challenging times?

Attention is the latest currency
In today's world, attention is highly valued and can be exchanged for other benefits and resources.

What really matters is your family tree
Ultimately, what is most important is our connection to our family and loved ones.

I don't wanna live in this fantasy
I don't want to continue living in a world of unrealistic expectations and dreams.

Get me outta here
I want to escape from this situation and reality.

Many people are in all kinds of pains
There are many people who are suffering in various ways and need help and support.

Bills and medication won't fix the game
Money and medical treatments alone cannot solve all of life's problems and challenges.

We're dancing to the beat of our ridiculous mistakes
As a society, we often repeat our mistakes and continue to make foolish decisions.

We don't learn a thing
We often fail to learn from our mistakes and continue on the same path.
