Tooth Fairy (Grin & Bear It)
What does deserve mean
Are we really owed anything
Is that just something we're made to believe
Like death and taxes and the tooth fairy
I didn't do nothing for it but I still want a reward
For breathing and eating and crying and feeling bored
I lay around whine about how you don't understand
And then I act like a bitch and pitch a fit because I cant
Hold a gun to your eyes
And say you gotta care now
Much as I wanna try
It's not gonna work out
I cant hold down the scales
And say it's fair if
You don't care then I
Just gotta grin and bear it
It's such a joke how
I thought the world was such a let down
But i'm the one with no upper body strength
And I lack the will to keep anyone at arms length
But I'll keep on holding and squeezing until my muscles are sore
And you'll keep pushing away i'll keep on reaching for more
When am i gonna let go of your goddamn hand
I cant force a horse to drink the water no and I cant
Hold a gun to your eyes
And say you gotta care now
Much as I wanna try
It's not gonna work out
I cant hold down the scales
And say it's fair if
You don't care then I
Just gotta grin and bear it
Praying for change under my pillow, sweet fairy would you share it
Toothless and broke but you watch as I grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Are we really owed anything
Is that just something we're made to believe
Like death and taxes and the tooth fairy
I didn't do nothing for it but I still want a reward
For breathing and eating and crying and feeling bored
I lay around whine about how you don't understand
And then I act like a bitch and pitch a fit because I cant
Hold a gun to your eyes
And say you gotta care now
Much as I wanna try
It's not gonna work out
I cant hold down the scales
And say it's fair if
You don't care then I
Just gotta grin and bear it
It's such a joke how
I thought the world was such a let down
But i'm the one with no upper body strength
And I lack the will to keep anyone at arms length
But I'll keep on holding and squeezing until my muscles are sore
And you'll keep pushing away i'll keep on reaching for more
When am i gonna let go of your goddamn hand
I cant force a horse to drink the water no and I cant
Hold a gun to your eyes
And say you gotta care now
Much as I wanna try
It's not gonna work out
I cant hold down the scales
And say it's fair if
You don't care then I
Just gotta grin and bear it
Praying for change under my pillow, sweet fairy would you share it
Toothless and broke but you watch as I grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
Grin and bear it
