Take that pain,
pass it down like bottles on the wall
Mama said her dad's to blame,
but that's his daddy's fault
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-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 cannot run what's running through your veins
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
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've got tomorrow then you've still got time
To break the chain that left you scarred
from where you came is it 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 it's something that you're destined to repeat
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You're stronger than you think
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-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-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've got tomorrow then you've still got time To break the
chain that left you scarred from where you came is it who you are?
Oh my brother,
you don't have to follow in your bloodline
That 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've got tomorrow then you've still got time
You've still got time
To break the chain that left you scarred
from where you came is it who you are?
Oh my brother,
you don't have to follow in your bloodline
