Is a block of stone
Carved out with the passing time
No-one knows the final shape
To justify repeating crimes
Of endless petty arguments
Back-bitting and snide comments
Shakey thoughts, undying love
We're club feet in black leather gloves
It's just family life
It's just family life
Is a quicksand lake
Deepens, widens everyday
No-one knows the final shape
When all the heart is coloured grey
No barriers of word or wit
You are known in each small bit
Shakey thoughts, undying love
We're club feet in black leather gloves
It's just family life
It's just family life
It's just family life
It's just family life
And you can tell all your friends
This is one game that never ends.
The double bind is scoring points
Adolescents smoking joints
Ego's worn upon the sleeve
We fight for your personality
We have no secrets
Subconscious package holiday
Tickets free on your birthday
Building traumas A to D
You can't look down past layer 3
We have no secrets
This melodrama's on a video loop
No point in time where we can rest away
This melodrama's on a video loop
