Portrait of a Happy Family Lyrics by Arms Like Roses

Blooming

2022

Years feel like hours, as a child wanders down each aisle
Searching for one familiar face
Scuffed up linoleum floors and fluorescent lighting blinds my eyes
It's never attractive to draw circles around your eyes
Please smother me with your love
As if the bruises aren't enough
I'm not over it
I'm not over it
Don't tell me who I am
Cause I'm not anything like you
I'll keep our secret safe, I promise
I won't tell
Cause I'm my only friend
I think water runs thicker than blood
Because bleeding hurts too much
I think water runs thicker than blood
Because I'm anemic
And that's pathetic
Mother, I think I'm okay
Father, do you still remember me?
Mother, I know you love me
Father, I'm really sorry
