Family Ties Lyrics

I want to shed some light
But death might interfere
I can't keep waiting for the right time to appear
So I came light tight fisted
With a finger in my pocket
And a scratch in my ear
I said no rest for the wicked
No time to say a prayer
I bless you please
I'm another useless emend
Hoping like hell
Two sugars types
Won't forget my eyes
All credit to my fear
That send me looking on
Searching for the weakness in the one we all admire to himself
He's a legend

Well I don't know why you want to be everywhere at once
It seems like madness
You might catch the plane and miss the magic
Though try to suck your breath
Don't wanna know where the other ones are looking
You should be open to some happiness
Life and soul

But your to young to hide and your mind
And the Family Ties are complicating yeah
Open up and now your mind goes numb
With the side shoe shuffle
Sucking at your thumb
You wanna be there
Teachers get your head
Get your head right here

I know it makes no sense to you
But just suppose some of it's true
Like happiness life and soul
And your to young to hide
And your mind
And the Family Ties are complicating yeah

To young (to hide)
The family ties are complicating yeah
To young (to hide)
The family ties are complicating yeah
