family curse.

Your demons are hidden in the honey The fountain of youth is looking a little muddy The poison was slipped in when you paid it no mind And how many drinks in? Do you even know the time? Did it get stronger or did you get weaker? Can you no longer act as your own keeper? Gone are the days you had it under control It's always been like this, you just got old You like to think that isn't you Even though you slipped up more than a time or two You can pull away from those generational roots This family curse ends with you This family curse ends with you You severed the leverage you had by staying aloof Although you didn't mean to, you wound up playing the fool You swear this is the last time You'll ever spend a dime on fine wine or moonshine It was one bad night and you wanna make it right You can't stand the sight of your momma crying I hope you're not lying They'll try to tell you that it's in your genes Just another bud off of the family tree But I don't think you ever had it under control You only notice now because you have a toll to pay You like to think that isn't you Even though you slipped up more than a time or two You can pull away from those generational roots This family curse ends with you So this is what it's like to have something to lose Find yourself wondering if it's worth all that booze So you can pull away from those generational roots This family curse ends with you This family curse ends with you This family curse ends with you
