[00:11.80] Mama, I see your face now in the mirror
[00:19.96] It's getting clearer
[00:23.71] Daddy, all those things I said I wouldn't do
[00:29.13] I've been drawn to cause I looked up to you
[00:34.95] And I've loved you through this tangled legacy
[00:40.57] Tracing the twisted roots of our family tree
[00:46.47] I stayed strong like you did
[00:52.24] I moved on like you did
[00:58.51] Now I wound up tough as stone like you did
[01:03.87] If I don't learn to bend I know I'm going to break
[01:10.18] Like you did
[01:16.37] Lover, I must forgive you
[01:21.25] I confused you with what I couldn't see inside of me
[01:30.09] Dark things pulling, not evolving
[01:35.91] It made a puppet out of me
[01:38.72] And you came with your own history
[01:44.96] Both caught in the branches of our family tree
[01:50.74] I stayed strong like you did
[01:56.63] I moved on like you did
[02:02.84] Now I wound up all alone like you did
[02:08.18] If I don't learn to bend I know I'm going to break
[02:13.91] Just like you did
[02:20.63] I love you but I need to look at who we've been
[02:26.60] Take the fruit but choose the seeds I scatter in the wind
[02:32.05] That's the job if the kid to do better than our parents did
[02:43.40] So I'll stay strong like you did
[02:49.14] And I'll love on like you did
[02:55.43] But I won't hide from the truth like you did
[03:01.55] I'm learning to bend so I won't break
[03:07.22] And you can bet I'll teach my child that
[03:09.93] Love will always find a way
[03:15.68] Just like you did
