[Verse]
Pops flipped tables, left love in the ashtray,
Words like grenades, boom in the hallway.
Mom chose her corner, blindfolded to my ache,
She stitched his wounds, but let mine break.
[Chorus]
Family tree, but the branches all splinter,
Roots gone cold in a dead man’s winter.
I stand alone, shadow’s my provider,
Family of fractures, I’m the outsider.
[Verse 2]
Brother got a crib, two kids and a paycheck,
Built his own world, left me in the wreckage.
Sis chasing love, but she keeps hitting walls,
Cupid’s bow bent, every arrow falls.
[Pre-Chorus]
Other bro’s crowned, gold shines on his face,
I’m the ghost in the corner, lost in the space.
[Chorus]
Family tree, but the branches all splinter,
Roots gone cold in a dead man’s winter.
I stand alone, shadow’s my provider,
Family of fractures, I’m the outsider.
[Bridge]
They laugh in the living room, I hear the echo,
I’m a crack in the frame of their fresco.
Tried to glue it back, but the bond ain’t stickin’,
They feast on connection, I’m the one not pickin’.
