lyrics

Thicker Than Water
When you were young, you dreamt of a life that was better,
You talked about love, I told you to go out and get her,
But somewhere it changed, all of your hopes had been shattered,
Time slipped away, with everything you thought had mattered.

Trapped in the mind, try to express what you're feeling,
but no-one can hear, or they don't understand what you're saying.
So you keep it inside, until you decide there's a reason,
For shocking the world, with outbursts of internal treason.

But your blood is thicker than water,
So when you feel like a lamb to the slaughter,
You know I am real, I'll always believe you,
Help you to heal, and give someone to turn to.

Do what you can, and work with the hand you've been given,
If patience were gold, you could be the master of kingdoms.
then you break-down, and act out to get some attention,
but deep in the heart is where you will find your redemption.

'Cause your blood is thicker than water
So when you feel like a lamb to the slaughter,
You know I am real, I'll always believe you
Help you to heal, and give you someone to turn to.
