Having you around was like having a knife in my back pocket
We shed a lot of blood but that don’t count for much now does it
You know your family wonders where you been
You kill them off like you kill everything
I was the only one who understands
No one’s gonna love you like I did

Oh, brother
They say blood is thicker than water
And I tried everything I know to learn to let you go

I got a bitterness
'Cause what’s in you is in me too
We were dealt a bad hand
But I made good with what you couldn’t do
I met a girl and I settled down
And I found better things to care about
How does the fucking family Christmas sound
Since I haven’t been around?

And I’ll give you the time of day while mum’s alive
But when she goes I can promise you so will I
And I hope you find your way, I hope you make it right
And that the last thing that flashes in front of you, it makes you smile

Oh brother
They say blood is thicker than water
And I tried everything I know to learn to let you go
Oh brother
They say blood is thicker than water
And I tried everything I know
But I don’t love you anymore

Oh, brother
They say blood is thicker than water
I tried everything I know
That I don't love you anymore
(I don't love you anymore)

Oh, brother
They say blood is thicker than water
I tried everything I know
That I don't love you anymore
(I don't love you anymore)
