How much of my Mother
Has my Mother left in me
How much of my love
Will be in sync to some degree
What about this feeling
That I'm never good enough
Will it wash out in the water
Or is it always in the blood

How much of my Father
Am I destined to become
Will I dim the lights inside me
Just to satisfy someone
Will I let this woman kill me
Or do away with jealous love

Will it wash out in the water
Or is it always in the blood
I can't feel the love I want
I can't feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come
The way I am
Could I change it if I wanted
Can I rise above the flood
Will it wash out in the water
Or is it always in the blood

How much like my brothers
Do my brothers wanna be
Does a broken home become
Another broken family
Will we be there for each other
Like nobody ever could

Will it wash out in the water
Or is it always in the blood
I can't feel the love I wanted
I can't feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come
The way I am
Could I change it if I wanted
Can I rise above the flood
Will it wash out in the water
Or is it always in the blood

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I can't feel the love I want
I can't feel the love I need
But it's never gonna come

The way I am
Could I change it if I wanted
Can I rise above the flood
Will it wash out in the water
Or is it always in the blood

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Is it always in the blood
