tippy balady - family dinners lyrics

family dinners lyrics
[verse 1]
set the table
dim the lights
fill your plate up
but don’t take a bite
mom occupies us while we wait
cause dad is late the second time this week
so she douses her pain in wine flavored shame
and pools of antidepressants
and dad doesn’t care as long as foods there when he’s home

[chorus]
so what’s the point of family dinners
when n0body gets along
i’d like for us to fight
and see we’re not all right
then go on and pretend nothings wrong
cause i’m sick of living
through a portrait of my life
whеn the picture frame is shattеred
and love is paired with strife
it looks like i’ve lost my appetite
for family dinners

[verse 2]
take a seat keep the place all neat
a broken pattern stuck on repeat
he’s on his way dear, he’ll be home
tonight we won’t be eating all alone
though my brother and i know it’s a lie
my mom stays optimistic
fighting back tears
her love slowly disappears more and more
[chorus]
so what’s the point of family dinners
when n0body gets along
i’d like for us to fight
and see we’re not all right
then go on and pretend nothings wrong
cause i’m sick of living
through a portrait of my life
when the picture frame is shattered
and love is paired with strife
it looks like i’ve lost my appetite
for family dinners

[bridge]
stop trying to keep us together
when we need to fall apart to get better
no more brushing it off it just doesn’t suffice
because i’ve seen through the years everything you’ve sacrificed
and you shouldn’t have to settle for a joy that is strained
cause beauty will bloom if you let in the rain

[chorus]
so what’s the point of family dinners
when n0body gets along
i’d like for us to fight
and see we’re not all right
then go on and pretend nothings wrong
cause i’m sick of living
through a portrait of my life
when the picture frame is shattered
and love is paired with strife
it looks like i’ve lost my appetite
for family dinners
