letra de nuclear family - adam warrock

[adam warrock]
this right here is my heart

[verse 1]
all i wanted was a chance in life
and so it started with a man and wife
maybe met too young
but he took a hand slid a ring on
and he made a promise he could never turn back on
that’s when it all went wrong; the second the last song played
the cans dragged on the concrete
they took a look at each other and saw a road
that opened up from in between the place
where their palms meet and it was all sweet
maybe five maybe ten years
maybe she shed a couple tears
he drank too much; put her in a hospital bed
that’s the place where the scars got revealed
up next, was like a couple a kids
maybe a dog and a house and a fence with a tire swing
swaying in the sunset; he’s perspiring
shoveling snow from the blizzard
and the fire keeps burning
just as long as the last flame fl!ckers
and her last name shifted though she never seemed bitter
and she carved a life in the coldest of winters
and the bad times didn’t mean nothing
she remembered when she was a little girl
she used to dream of this
the magazines she clipped and saw her friends first
hold hands when they jumped off the cliff
and it don’t often miss in her judgment of the universe
oh my look at what time does; it changes your mind up
and makes you think about what you want from it
times moves life; does it ever stop?
and you think you got something
in reality is nothing with
love and understanding; patience and virtue
a little bit of crazy cause people gonna hurt you
don’t let life take the best years away from you
is what i’m telling you, is what i’m telling you

[chorus]
and i don’t really need to know know know
how it all pans out
all i know that love’s not enough
and i’ma do without i’ma do without
i’m looking for that nuclear family
cause i really don’t know know know
if i can ever get the happy ending
sometimes, well that’s the way that life goes

[verse 2]
well, maybe in another life (yeah)
i could have given you all that you wanted
the same as i saw before in my youth
though i didn’t know the truth
now i’m older and i get it
that everyone’s as messed up as us
domestic violence and the words that k!ll
the prozac and zoloft hands holding the pills
and the kids from the broken gl-ss houses still
they feel the pain; blood lost and spilled
check that veneer what we hear from the closed doors
broken plates that shattered on the floor
and the yells and the screams were comfort
silence was deafening
headphones was necessary then
drowning out our own false imagery
p-ss that norman rockwell disease
from one generation to the next and we don’t know
why i still wanna stay and i don’t go

just a wife two kids and a dog
man my life’s so far from that
and it’s hard cause i used to want a house in the hills
with a car right next to the minivan in the garage
now i know that i’m bound for those lonely days
with my headphones on it kinda covers me
that i’ll never have a nuclear family
just a wife, two kids and a dog

say i am
somebody!
well i’m just glad that i’ve got someone who loves me
for the kids from the families that never made sense
with the tears and blood spilled to pay the rent
just hope y’all know you got family here
so trust me, yeah
