The way that you tend to your garden
May be the way that you treat other humans
And the weeds you neglect through the seasons
May resemble your own inner demons
Blood, it is thicker than water
But your grandson just didn't fit the order
To be blessed with a heart that is opened
But can easily bruise and be broken
Yeah
Blood, it is thicker than water
The failings you feel do not falter
And the flame in the distance it will flicker
Shortcomings if all truth be spoken
We keep the depths of the wounds fairly shallow
And I know as I go I will learn
So much when life stings and it burns
His blood, it is thicker than water
No matter the story or the order
