FAMILY TREE

RØRY, Jez Ashurst

[Verse 1]
I've been waiting on that email, where you apologise
And for invitations to family occasions but they don't arrive
I talk about you with my therapist, and say you're just misunderstood
She said I've had you on a pedestal since I was 8 years old
And it don't do me no good

[Pre-Chorus]
Year by year it fucks me up
Carrying dead wood, carrying us

[Chorus]
I'll tear down this family tree
'Cause it's poisoned you and me
Gotta cut, cut, cut it down
And watch as it falls to the ground
Take a chainsaw to the branches, to the source of all my sadness
Cut, cut, cut it down
Down, down

[Spoken]
Just want you to know that I love you
I'm gonna cry again, um

[Verse 2]
If you think I wanna do this, then God you got it wrong
But I gotta be ruthless digging up the roots til all of you is gone
I never thought we'd be that family that didn't speak for 20 years
I'll see you at the funeral for somebody we both knew, act like it ain't weird, ohh

[Chorus]
I'll tear down this family tree
'Cause it's poisoned you and me
Gotta cut, cut, cut it down
And watch as it falls to the ground
Take a chainsaw to the branches, to the source of all my sadness
Cut, cut, cut it down
Down, down

[Hook]
Down d-d-down d-down d-down down down
Down d-d-down d-down, I gotta cut it down down
I gotta cut it down down, oh
Down d-d-down d-down d-down down down
Down d-d-down d-down, I gotta cut it down down
I gotta cut it down down, oh

[Bridge]
So don't reach out, don't contact me
It's taken every part of me to cut cut cut you out
You will never hurt me now

[Outro]
Take a chainsaw to the branches, to the source of all my sadness
Cut, cut, cut it down
Down down down (Down d-d-down d-down d-down down down)
I gotta cut you out (Down d-d-down d-down, I gotta cut it down down)
I gotta cut you down
So you'll never hurt me now
Down down
