Blood Is Blood

Balsamo Collins Deighton Hamill

My father was a lucky man

He Rolled the dice took his chances

Mamma do all that she can

Tried to keep the wolf at bay

Taught the devil all he knew

His smile could seduce the angels

Sing the sirens out the blue

Wipe all their tears away

I know blood is blood

But the pull is stronger

When you're hiding out

The truth becomes stranger

I wish that I wasn't a stranger

Lie beneath a sky of stars

Contemplating all the mystery

See how connected we are

What we're made of can make us afraid

Sweetest sound I ever heard

Was my baby daughter breathing

Said it all without a word

Till I saw him in her eyes

I know blood is blood

But the pull is stronger

When you're hiding out

The truth becomes stranger

I know blood is blood

But the pull is stronger

When you're halfway home

The road can look longer

I wish I wasn't a stranger

The weight of our history

The good and the bad comes down the line

Sometimes it's too much to carry

I see your life in my design

The more I try to run

The more I become you

Still try to run

I know blood is blood is blood

I know blood is blood

But the pull is stronger when you're hiding out

The truth becomes stranger

I wish that I wasn't a stranger
