Family Affair

What came easy
Oh the frustration
What a cruel hand
You’ve been dealt
To see the wave coming
With nowhere to run to
And just our hands to hold
It’s a family affair
To make peace with despair
And singing songs
To stave away the tears
A wreck in slow-motion
So slow it seems normal
That each fresh loss, stings less
But joy finds a way through
Through each new hole in our hearts
To even laugh at how lucky we are
It’s a family affair
To make peace with despair
And singing songs
To stave away the tears
How many goodbyes
Do we have in us?
But give me strength
For the last
