Family Tree lyrics
by Megadeth
[Verse 1]
Forgotten things remembered
The tigers eat their young
The body stayed, but inside the head
The mind was on the run
A conspiracy of silence
The only way out of pain
Is turn around, run through it, man
Too wet to come in from the rain
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell them, "I know they were doing it to you
But don't try doing it to me."
[Chorus]
Let me show you how I love you
It's our secret, you and me
Let me show you how I love you
But keep it in the family
[Verse 2]
When you hear them saying "Trust me"
Don't wait to see what's next
Thrown to the wolves, forever trusting
Raised in a form of living Hell
Sing a one note song of rage
Live and die within your heart
So beware in the shadows
Your family tree waits in the dark
[Pre-Chorus]
I say, "I know they were doing it to you
But don't try doing it to me."
No, no...
[Chorus]
Let me show you how I love you
It's our secret, you and me
Let me show you how I love you
But keep it in the family tree
Let me show you how I love you
It's our secret, you and me
Let me show you how I love you
The secret, heh, of the family tree
[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar Solo: Marty Friedman]
[Chorus]
Let me show you how I love you
It's our secret, you and me
Let me show you how I love you
But keep it in the family tree (Only show you)
Let me show you how I love you (Only show you, only show you)
It's our secret, you and me (It's our secret)
Let me show you how I love you (It's our secret, it's our secret)
The secret of the family tree (The secret of the family)
[Outro]
Let me show you how I love you (Only show you)
It's our secret, you and me (Whoa, in the shadows)
Let me show you how I love you (Don't [?])
But keep it in the family tree... ([?])
