Family Line

Family Line - Conan Gray

Lyrics by：Daniel Nigro/Conan Gray

Composed by：Daniel Nigro/Conan Gray

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

My mother never cried a lot

She took the punches but she never fought

Till she said "I'm leaving and I'll take the kids"

So she did

I say "they're just the ones who gave me life"

But I truly am my parent's child

Scattered cross my family line

I'm so good at telling lies

That came from my mother's side

Told a million to survive

Scattered cross my family line

God I have my father's eyes

But my sister's when I cry

I can run

But I can't hide

From my family line

It's hard to put it into words

How the holidays will always hurt

I watch the fathers with their little girls

And wonder what I did

To deserve this

How could you hurt a little kid

I can't forget I can't forgive you

Cause now I'm scared

That everyone I love will leave me

Scattered cross my family line

I'm so good at telling lies

That came from my mother's side

Told a million to survive

Scattered cross my family line

God I have my father's eyes

But my sister's when I cry

I can run but I can't hide

From my family line

From my family line

All that I did

To try to undo it

All of my pain

And all your excuses

I was a kid

But I wasn't clueless

Someone who loves you wouldn't do this

All of my past I tried to erase it

But now I see

Would I even change it

Might share a face

And share a last name

But we are not the same

Scattered cross my family line

I'm so good at telling lies

That came from my mother's side

Told a million to survive

Scattered cross my family line

God I have my father's eyes

But my sister's when I cry

I can run but I can't hide

From my family line

From my family line
