The ties that bind can bruise and break
But love can heal what's at stake
Some say blood is thicker than water
But what if that blood leaves you shattered
Some build bridges; some tear them down
Through their chaos, love still surrounds
For every storm, there's a quiet shore
In their arms, I'm hurt no more
I've got the bloodline blues
Family ties that leave their clues
Through the pain and through the love
I find my strength up from above
For every heart that walks away
Another stays to brighten my day
Through the cracks, I see the light
Family love burning bright
I've got the bloodline blues
Family ties that leave their clues
Through the pain and through the love
I find my strength up from above
Through the hurt, I've come to see
The ones who truly care for me
For every storm, there's a quiet shore
In their arms, I'm hurt no more
I've got the bloodline blues
Family ties that leave their clues
Through the pain and through the love
I find my strength up from above
I'll keep the blues, but hold the good
For family's more than just blood
