The Old Family Uke!
Two links of a chain now broken apart
The fence unravels, so does my heart
A man-shaped hole where I used to be
I slip right through, seeking sanctuary
My world unravels, stars lose their glow
In this void I know, in this void I know
To the green fields opposite this barren land
I slump, as nearly still as death
The stars don't gleam so bright tonight
Nor will the Sun when she takes her flight
My world unravels, tears cloud my sight
In this endless night, in this endless night
Two family trees, once so intertwined
Breaking now, I'm the gap they leave behind
Their roots and branches no longer unite
I'm caught in the middle of their endless fight
Tears reflect off my frozen face
Stuck to my cheeks like the morning dew
The illusion shatters, I'm alone and scared
Realizing the grass isn't greener there
My world unravels, but I stand tall
In this crumbling hall, in this crumbling hall
A fence, a tree, both falling apart
But I find my strength, deep in my heart
The world unwinds, but love's still there
In this broken chain, new links to bear
Oh, I hadn't been to the old house in years
But, it's still here, where we were once family!
Oh, two links of a chain are broken
And so the fence unravels
Until a man-shaped hole is made
For me to slide through deftly
My world unravels, stars lose their shine
In this Void of mine, in this Void of mine
To the green grass opposite this wasteland
I slump as nearly still as death, as nearly still as death
To the green fields opposite this barren land
I slump, as nearly still as death
The stars don't gleam so bright tonight
Nor will the Sun when she takes her flight
My world unravels, tears cloud my sight
In this endless night, in this endless night
The fence unravels, so does my heart
A man-shaped hole where I used to be
I slip right through, seeking sanctuary
My world unravels, stars lose their glow
In this void I know, in this void I know
To the green fields opposite this barren land
I slump, as nearly still as death
The stars don't gleam so bright tonight
Nor will the Sun when she takes her flight
My world unravels, tears cloud my sight
In this endless night, in this endless night
Two family trees, once so intertwined
Breaking now, I'm the gap they leave behind
Their roots and branches no longer unite
I'm caught in the middle of their endless fight
Tears reflect off my frozen face
Stuck to my cheeks like the morning dew
The illusion shatters, I'm alone and scared
Realizing the grass isn't greener there
My world unravels, but I stand tall
In this crumbling hall, in this crumbling hall
A fence, a tree, both falling apart
But I find my strength, deep in my heart
The world unwinds, but love's still there
In this broken chain, new links to bear
Oh, I hadn't been to the old house in years
But, it's still here, where we were once family!
Oh, two links of a chain are broken
And so the fence unravels
Until a man-shaped hole is made
For me to slide through deftly
My world unravels, stars lose their shine
In this Void of mine, in this Void of mine
To the green grass opposite this wasteland
I slump as nearly still as death, as nearly still as death
To the green fields opposite this barren land
I slump, as nearly still as death
The stars don't gleam so bright tonight
Nor will the Sun when she takes her flight
My world unravels, tears cloud my sight
In this endless night, in this endless night
