The Builders And The Butchers - Family Tree Lyrics

Lord, lord please don't tell
Don't tell, don't tell
Lord, lord please don't tell
Don't tell, don't tell

I'll tell you what I did
My brother's on the railroad tracks
Looking at the golden leaves
Cable tied around his hands and knees

And my family tree
It goes straight
Right back into the ground
And my family tree
It goes straight down

Lord, lord please don't tell
Don't tell, don't tell
Lord, lord please don't tell
Don't tell, don't tell

I'll tell you where my daddy's been
Deep into the still of the night
Burn's his candle in the whiskey and sin
Mama's been broken all over again

And my family tree
It goes straight
Right back into the ground
And my family tree
It goes straight down
And my family tree
It goes straight
Right back into the ground
And my family tree
It goes straight down

And what my lord is the lifespan of a tree my lord?
The devil only knows
And how long must I spend down on my knees my lord?
The devil only knows
I'll crawl through all the cracks and the bottles
I'll crawl through all the cracks
I spilt my blood at the foot of the altar
And then I broke my back

And my family tree
It goes straight
Right back into the ground
And my family tree
It goes straight down
And my family tree
It goes straight
Right back into the ground
And my family tree
It goes straight down
