DEATH IN THE FAMILY

[Verse 1]

I need a death in the family to turn my page

I need them to understand I have learned my place

'Cause what good's atoning for sin? I'll be bleeding on the sharks

I need divine intervention to wash away these scars

[Chorus]

Don't take the things you think I

Don't take the things you think I have

Just wait for God to take my brother, sister, mother, uncle, aunt

[Verse 2]

I need a death in the family to shift the plot

I need some people to forget all their forget-me-nots

'Cause what good is showing your hand when they'd have you cut it off?

And what good's an honest man who's accеpted that he's lost?

[Chorus]

Don't take thе things you think I

Don't take the things you think I have

Just wait for God to take my brother, sister, mother, uncle, aunt

[Outro]

'Cause all is love, war, and taxes

I've built my house on stolen valor, sympathy, and charm

But all your little men might set their sights on you

If you show up with a pitchfork to a funeral

Let me go
