My Cross

Your blood is my blood And poison runs deep Knowing you're mine scares the hell out of me 'Cause hurt is a sickness And trauma is too And I'd rather die than to pass it to you 'Cause that's my cross to carry My scars to heal My pain to bury Not yours to feel I pray every day I can love you enough So, my cross to carry Won't be yours to pick up I hope to God you don't get my addictions Don't deal with my demons or make my decisions Yeah, I hope the apple falls far from the tree And the sins of the Father stop right here with me 'Cause that's my cross to carry My scars to heal My pain to bury Not yours to feel I pray every day I can love you enough So, my cross to carry Won't be yours to pick up Won't be yours to pass down And when you make mistakes on your own I hope that you know You'll never go through it alone 'Cause that's my cross to carry My scars to heal And my pain to bury Not yours to feel I pray every day I can love you enough So, my cross to carry Won't be yours to pick up Won't be yours to pick up Won't be yours to pick up
