Heavy Is As Heavy Does

Heavy are the branches
 Hanging from my fucked up family tree
 And heavy was my father
 A stoic man of pride and privacy
 And I don't care much for wishful thinking
 It's heavy as I breathe
 Because I don't believe in second chances
 It's heavy as I leave
 As prideful as a man he was
 Proud my father never was of me
 I did it for survival
 But I looked like the asshole anyway
 You ate up all my breadcrumbs
 Now I'm lost alone inside your cage
 Among six billion people
 I want the ones who never wanted me
 I'm not one for religion
 But I can't seem to ditch this imagery
 And I don't care much for wishful thinking
 It's heavy as I breathe
 Because I don't believe in second changes
 It's heavy as I leave
 And I don't care much for wishful thinking
 I can't breathe
 Heavy are the branches
