Lyrics Shelby Lynne

Shelby Lynne

Family Tree

I'm not happy with this conversation

Too little righteous indignation

I'm not sure if I'm mad or mean

The tears I cry could mean anything

Just cause you're kin I let it slide

Insults and judgments I've been blind

And it hard for you to deal out digs

With a calloused heart your words are quick

I'm sick and tired of throwing stones

Cause all that leaves is broken bones

And I won't shed no blood for you

Aww the cuts too deep the bruise too blue

I've wasted time and been hand fed

You can't take back the things you said

Too much time has gone and passed

Shattered lives and broken glass.

The pain is felt behind my eyes

But you won't see me through my disguise

Can't change fate cause this is done

Aww too late to start the race is run.

Now's the time to face the facts

This train done slid right off the tracks

Regret is sad revenge is sweet

I'm walking on my own two feet.

You could have come along but you broke my heart

Now's the time for me to start

Living my life without you

Being a rock in my shoe.

Can't write the book cause this one's wrote

Time's a friend and love's a foe

The future's mine indeed it's grand

You ain't a part of my plan.

When you lay down and think of me

There won't be much serenity

Just know that the aching in your brain

Is the sound of your soul's grief and pain.

This apple's done fall off the Family Tree

This apple's done fall off the Family Tree.
