Oh I wish my heart wasn't broken from the start

I never stood a fighting chance

In all my days, from my cradle to my grave

I'll never have a father-daughter dance.

It was always drama

I'm sorry I'm always so anxious and numb

Just sorry I'm fucked up

I really just don't know how to love, how to trust

I try but when I talk about him

I should probably cry but

He's nothing, he's no one, a stranger.

Oh I wish my heart wasn't broken from the start

I never stood a fighting chance

In all my days, from my cradle to my grave

I'll never have a father-daughter dance.

I'm never alone

But, god, I'm so lonely

I fuck with my phone

Hoping it'll help me with my anxiety

But it don't

I don't even know if I wanna have kids

I don't wanna fuck 'em up the way he did

Sometimes I wonder, if I'd had a dad

Would he had protected me

From all the bad shit, the bad men?

Would I even be the same person?

Somebody to help with the flat tire

Somebody to walk me down the aisle

Somebody to help with the flat tire

Somebody to walk me down the aisle

The worst part of this is I'm not even sad

How do I miss something I never had?

Oh I wish my heart wasn't broken from the start

I never really stood a fighting chance

In all my days, from my cradle to my grave

I'll never have a father-daughter dance.

Yet everyone who has pain don't turn to ice

I'm sure that at the time you tried your best

But all of this has made me who I am.

Without that father-daughter dance.
