Lyrics for Family Tree
Forgotten things remembered The tigers eat their young The body stayed but inside the head The mind was on the run A conspiracy of silence The only way out of pain Is turn around, run through it, man Too wet to come in from the rain Tell them I know they were doin' it to you But don't try doin' it to me Let me show you how I love you It's our secret, you and me Let me show you how I love you But keep it in the family When you hear them saying "Trust me" Don't wait to see what's next Thrown to the wolves, forever trusting Raised in a form of living Hell Sing a one note song of rage Live and die within your heart So beware in the shadows Your family tree waits in the dark I say "I know they were doin' it to you But don't try doin' it to me" No, no... Let me show you how I love you It's our secret, you and me Let me show you how I love you But keep it in the family tree Let me show you how I love you It's our secret, you and me Let me show you how I love you The secret of the family tree Let me show you how I love you It's our secret, you and me Let me show you how I love you But keep it in the family tree Let me show you how I love you It's our secret, you and me Let me show you how I love you The secret of the family tree Let me show you how I love you It's our secret, you and me Let me show you how I love you
