Heredity

How bout a minute's silence
For the mates I'll never see
They never bother with me
It still bothers me
The months creep through the landing
And down the carpet stairs
I never sat down at the table
To ask about your day

I should be independant
But I rely on my student loans
And a bus that never comes
I should learn to drive

We never had those conversations
You never were one to talk
I'll put it down to genetics
The wallpaper's still the same
As the day that mum left
We never spoke man to man
We only cried father to son

I should be independant
But I rely on my student loans
And a bus that never comes
I should learn to drive
And then I'll crash the car
Hope my brain will fall apart
And when I crash the car
My lungs will be torn apart

I look more like you every day
I look more like you every day
I look more like you every day
I look more like you every day

I should be independant
But I rely on my student loans
And a bus that never comes
I should learn to drive
And then I'll crash the car
Hope my brain will fall apart
And when I crash the car
My lungs will be torn apart
