Bound by Blood - Paddy And The Rats

Father was a boozer

He liked to miss his job

A looser and seducer

Who was lost

Mother tried her best

She was broken and depressed

But we ha each other

Always in this mess

Tried to run, you looked far away

I had to calm you, tell you to stay

So I took you by the hand

Together swum against the flood

On the faith in which we stand

Is our love oooh

Life was not as we’ve planned

Coz we were born and raised in mud

But we were strong

We were brave

We were bound by our blood

We wanted to get away

Coz we were bound

With all these lies

Chained to all these numbing

Fears inside

Without shackles on our heart

We wanted to feel alive

The starry skies were our home

Every night

We will fade at the last golden sun

Our shadows disappear and we’ll be one

But we won’t pray

Coz we know that’s what we had

Together we were young

We were mad
