lyrics

Take after me, don't take after me
Let the sun shine in your hair
Take after me, don't take after me
It isn't just unfair, some kind of game
You're plenty cursed enough to share my name

Every kid is different in every book I read
Comfort in insisting it will be
Nothing like the trouble that hit my mom and dad,
Dreaming of the son oncoming like a falling tree

Take after me, don't take after me
Let the sun shine in your hair
Take after me, don't take after me
It isn't just unfair, some kind of game
You're plenty cursed enough to share my name

How would it have been to feed that fucking kid
When he was only waiting to complain
The things in my control are going to take their toll
And the forecast calls for expectations falling hard and rain

Take after me, don't take after me
Let the sun shine in your hair
Take after me, don't take after me
It isn't just unfair, some kind of game
You're plenty cursed enough to share my name
