Breakin’ my fingers to the bone.
Treatin’ my head like a rollin’ stone.
Doin’ everything I can to avoid a scene.
Things are slowin’ down
like I knew they would and
you’re springin’ the news on me
I know it ain’t good.
you’re gettin’ hitched
and want to know what I think.
This’ll end the silence for me.
I don’t want a part,
don’t want a part in anything.
I wish I could say
everything I wanted to say
but I don’t got the time.
I’m shakin’ your hand, and smilin’,
and I’m wishing you well,
but the back of my mind I’m thinkin’,
“oh Jesus, hell
you’re moving far, far away
from your past.”
Yes oh yes,
well it may be love,
and yes you think that it was sent
from heaven above,
but I don’t believe in fairy tales no more.
I may be cryin’ everyday,
but at least I’m not,
at least I’m not runnin’ away.
I wish I could say
everything I wanted to say
but I don’t got the time.
You say we’re family,
but it’s not how it feels to me.
You say we’re family
You say we’re family,
but it’s not how it feels to me.
You say we’re family.
You say we’re family,
but it’s not how it feels to me,
You say we’re family.
Shut the fuck up, and run away.
I wish I could say
everything I wanted to say
but I don’t got the time.
