Bloodline

There's a photograph
Only one I have of you
Wish that I knew
Who it was holding my hand

I would ask her, but I can't anymore
But even before
She was gone, she was gone
By a thread I'm hanging on

High above, I'm walking the bloodline
Don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall
If I slip one time, that's the end because I'm
Daddy's ghost and mama's witness
Close your eyes and mind your business
Take the truth and twist it 'til it fits you like a noose
Don't look down, whatever you do
Walking the blood line

There's a high some people need
And mama loved it more than me
Like a child, she cradled it wild
I grew up in grandma's house

Living with what we don't talk about
Now I've grown, still don't know
Who I am, who I am
Or where I'm gonna land

High above, I'm walking the bloodline
Don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall
If I slip one time, that's the end because I'm
Daddy's ghost and mama's witness
Close your eyes and mind your business
Take the truth and twist it 'til it fits you like a noose
Don't look down, whatever you do
Walking the blood line

Up on the wire with a fire down below
Today I walk a straight line, but tomorrow I don't know

High above, I'm walking the bloodline
Don't wanna fall, don't wanna fall
If I slip one time, that's the end because I'm
Daddy's ghost and mama's witness
Close your eyes and mind your business
Take the truth and twist it 'til it fits you like a noose
Don't look down, whatever you do
Walking the blood line, walking the blood line
