Verse 1]
Dinner table silence, internal teenage violence
Starin' in my father's stress-filled eyes
His back was probably hurtin' from life's financial burden
Same type of pressure I've internalized

[Chorus]
'Cause time, it flies and the fire dies like candles on a cake
College debt and cigarettes, and all our shared mistakes
It's a vicious cycle that nobody can escape
Blood related and tryin' to relate

[Verse 2]
She lived the life they taught her, had a son, she had a daughter
A martyr for her children's happiness
In a picture of a past life, a future lookin' so bright
Smilin' in her Easter Sunday dress

[Chorus]
Summertime and light blue eyes, and love that likely fades
Wedding dress, white picket fence, pressure to procreate
It's a vicious cycle that nobody can escape
Blood related and tryin' to relate

[Bridge]
Amidst a mid-life crisis, left up to your own devices
Starin' at your half-full glass of wine
'Cause you gave them the cold shoulder, but I bet before it's over
You're gonna wish that you had more time

[Chorus]
'Cause time, it flies and fire dies, and people will make mistakes
Photographs and epitaphs, and flowers on the grave
It's a vicious cycle, it's a never-ending fate
Blood related and tryin' to relate

[Outro]
Blood related and tryin' to relate
Blood related and tryin' to relate
