Family Tradition

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I tried to be the one that everybody loved

Where has that gotten me?

I tear myself to shreds to prove that I'm someone

That I could never be

Now these unsightly marks define me

So help me, please someone come quick

I think I am losing it

Forgive me, I inherited this

From a stranger I'll never miss

I'm sick

My father taught me first hand how to be set free

Give up and runaway

I wish I could drain out his half of blood in me

But I'd still have his face

I curse reflections everyday

So help me, please someone come quick

I think I am losing it

Forgive me, I inherited this

From a stranger I'll never miss

Here is my own family tradition

Following footsteps into addiction

So is there a way that I can find peace

While still numbing my pain

Is this my fate?

Cause your only son still cant seem to find his way

So help me, please someone come quick

I think I am losing it

Forgive me, I inherited this

From a stranger I'll never miss

So father where the hell are you now? (Where the are you now?)

I think that you would be proud

Your son who so unluckily (unluckily)

Fell right next to the tree

I hope you're proud of me

I hope you're proud
