family line
{IGOR NOVIKOV}
my father never talked a lot
he just took a walk around the block
till all his anger took a hold of him
and then he'd hit
{ROXIE BLACKWOOD}
my mother never cried a lot
she took the punches but she never fought
{HADLEY BLACKWOOD}
till she said
"I'm leaving and I'll take the kids"
so she did
{NATHAN BLACKWOOD}
I say they're just the ones who gave me life
but I truly am my parent's child
{LAURA EASTON}
scattered 'cross my family line
{DANNY LEWIS}
I'm so good at telling lies
that came from my mother's side
{IGOR NOVIKOV}
told a million to survive
{LAURA EASTON}
scattered 'cross my family line
{NATHAN BLACKWOOD}
god, I have my father's eyes
but my sister's when I cry
{LAURA EASTON}
I can run but I can't hide
from my family line
{DANNY LEWIS}
it's hard to put it into words
how the holidays will always hurt
{ROXIE BLACKWOOD}
I watch the fathers with their little girls
and wonder what I did to deserve this
{IGOR NOVIKOV}
how could you hurt a little kid
{IGOR & ROXIE}
I can't forget, I can't forgive you
cause now I'm scared that everyone I love will leave me
{LAURA EASTON}

{NATHAN BLACKWOOD}
I'm so good at telling lies
that came from my mother's side

god, I have my father's eyes
but my sister's when I cry
{LAURA EASTON}
I can run but I can't hide
from my family line
{HADLEY BLACKWOOD}
from my family line
{DANNY LEWIS}
all that I did to try to undo it
{ROXIE BLACKWOOD}
all of my pain and all your excuses
{ALL}
I was a kid but I wasn't clueless
(someone who loves you wouldn't do this)
{LAURA EASTON}
all of my past, I tried to erase it
{NATHAN BLACKWOOD}
but now I see would I even change it
{ALL}
might share a face and share a last name but
(we are not the same)

{ALL}
I can run but I can't hide
from my family line
