[00:10.290]My father never talked a lot
[00:13.015]He just took a walk around the block
[00:15.659]Till all his anger took a hold of him
[00:18.283]And then he'd hit
[00:21.442]My mother never cried a lot
[00:23.927]She took the punches, but she never fought
[00:26.465]Till she said, "I'm leaving and I'll take the kids"
[00:29.403]So she did
[00:31.547]I say, "They're just the ones who gave me life"
[00:37.659]But I truly am my parents' child
[00:43.111]Scattered 'cross my family line
[00:45.913]I'm so good at telling lies
[00:48.736]That came from my mother's side
[00:51.300]Told a million to survive
[00:54.178]Scattered 'cross my family line
[00:56.884]God, I have my father's eyes
[00:59.768]But my sister's when I cry
[01:02.546]I can run but I can't hide
[01:04.857]From my family line
[01:10.894]It's hard to put it into words
[01:13.358]How the holidays will always hurt
[01:16.071]I watch the fathers with their little girls
[01:18.625]And wonder what I did to deserve this?
[01:21.969]How could you hurt a little kid?
[01:24.685]I can't forget, I can't forgive you
[01:27.596]'Cause now I'm scared that everyone I love will leave me
[01:32.177]Scattered 'cross my family line
[01:34.986]I'm so good at telling lies
[01:37.696]That came from my mother's side
[01:40.281]Told a million to survive
[01:43.018]Scattered 'cross my family line
[01:45.766]God, I have my father's eyes
[01:48.530]But my sister's when I cry
[01:51.238]I can run, but I can't hide
[01:53.734]From my family line
[01:59.171]From my family line
[02:04.662]Oh, all that I did to try to undo it
[02:08.369]All of my pain and all your excuses
[02:10.815]I was a kid but I wasn't clueless
[02:13.277](Someone who loves you wouldn't do this)
[02:16.000]All of my past, I tried to erase it
[02:18.556]But now I see, would I even change it?
[02:21.200]Might share a face and share a last name, but
[02:24.007](We are not the same)
[02:25.706]Scattered 'cross my family line
[02:28.192]I'm so good at telling lies

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 parents' 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
