Family Tree — текст песни (Athenaeum)

I don`t talk too much to my family
I feel bad, they don`t understand me.
I don`t speak unless there`s something really important to say.
I`m not weak,
though quiet people often come across that way.

You and me and the family tree
That I cant seem to climb
There`s something wrong, I guess I don`t belong
And I don`t really mind, no i don`t really mind.

I don`t talk too much to my family.
I feel bad, whenever they`re around me.
But I might write, maybe send a postcard once a year.
To be polite, and tell them all the things they want to hear.

You and me and the family tree
oh we made such a mess
but you gave it a shot, and look what you got
A son who`s fatherless.
You and me and the family tree
that just can`t seem to grow
But I just wanted to say
that I love you anyway
And I think that you should know.
I think that you should know.

I don`t talk, I don`t speak
You might say that I am weak
But I don`t talk, and I don`t speak.
