lyrics

When my father was laid to rest
I was 14 years old
Cold hearted, no goals
My mother, she did her best
And when I finally got the nerve
I made my clean break
For the golden state
But my head just came home worst

But my brother is the sea
And he speaks to me
Yeah he speaks to me

Do you think that it is worth it to be,
The mother of a liar or the father of a God damn thief?
You say you love unconditionally
But the heart is not a martyr, it may beat but it don’t beat for me
Yeah it may beat but it don’t beat for
(Heart may beat)
Yeah it may beat but it don’t beat for me

When my father was laid to rest
The pressure I felt in my head and my heart
Was enough to send me next
And I’m done
You tell my brother that the worst is still yet to come

Do you think that it is worth it to be,
The mother of a liar or the father of a God damn thief?
You say you love unconditionally
But the heart is not a martyr, it may beat but it don’t beat for me
Yeah it may beat but it don’t beat for
(Heart may beat)
Yeah it may beat but it don’t beat for me

But my brother is the sea
And he speaks to me
Yeah he speaks to me
