Bloodline

Take that pain, pass it down
Like bottles on the wall
Momma said her dad's to blame
But that's his daddy's fault
Oh, there's no one left to call

You stay up counting down the days
Till you make your escape
But you're afraid you can't outrun
What's running through your veins
Oh, you're carrying the weight

In the dead of night
On that broken road
I won't let you walk alone

Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
Oh, we got each other
And if you got tomorrow, then you still got time
To break the chain
That left you scarred
From where you came
Isn't who you are
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline

Oh, I won't pretend that I know
Half the hell you've seen
But that don't mean that's something
That you're destined to repeat
Oh, you're stronger than you think

I know it has to end
But you don't know where to start
You can pack your bags
And I'll meet you where you are
Oh, I'll be waiting in the car

In the dead of night
On that broken road
I won't let you walk alone

Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
Oh, we got each other
And if you got tomorrow, then you still got time
To break the chain
That left you scarred
From where you came
Isn't who you are
Oh, my brother (Oh)
You don't have to follow in your bloodline

The storm keeps on raging
But don't you forget
God's not done with you yet
When it feels like you're losing
The war in your head
Just know this isn't the end

Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline (In your bloodline)
Oh, we got each other
And if you got tomorrow, then you still got time (You still got time)
To break the chain
That left you scarred
From where you came
Isn't who you are
Oh, my brother
You don't have to follow in your bloodline
