lyrics

We were only kids then, when you threw us out to the wind 
Mama said you didn’t understand, and life was different back then 
Tell me what makes a man, is it the roughness of his hands? 
Ive got a boy of my own, I’m scared to the bone 
I lay this on him 

Can we break the chain, or are we just the same?
Is it written on the surface of your skin 
or tell me does it flow from deep within
Does it run in blood?

I remember hearing, mum and dad screaming 
The house would shake, plates would break 
I was safe in my sisters bed 
Mum she could Never leave, she said there’s too much history 
She was raised to proud, two parents around
She took her vows seriously 

Will I have the strength, to walk away
When enough is enough
Could I face the change? 
So is it written on the surface of your skin
or tell me does it flow from deep within
Does it run in blood?

Can we break the chain, or are we just the same?
They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree 
And these days I’m seeing lots of you in me 
Does it run in blood?

Because I spent all my life trying to push away 
Everything that’s you I want to change 
Does it run in blood?
