Father was a boozer
He liked to miss his job
A looser & seducer
Who was lost
Mother tried her best
She was broken and depressed
But we had each other
Always in this mess
Tried to run, you looked far away
I had to calm you, tell you to stay
So I took you by the hand
Together swum against the flood
On the faith in which we stand
Is our love (Oooh)
Life was not as we’ve planned
Coz we were born and raised in mud
But we were strong, we were brave
We were bound by our blood
We wanted to get away
Coz we were bound with all these lies
Chained to all these numbing fears inside
Without shackles on our heart
We wanted to feel alive
The starry skies were our home every night
Tried to run, you looked far away
I had to calm you, tell you to stay
So I took you by the hand
Together swum against the flood
On the faith in which we stand
Is our love (Oooh)
Life was not as we’ve planned
Coz we were born and raised in mud
But we were strong, we were brave
We were bound by our blood
We will fade at the last golden sun
Our shadows disappear and we’ll be one
But we won’t pray
Coz we know that’s what we had
Together we were young, we were mad
So I took you by the hand
Together swum against the flood
On the faith in which we stand
Is our love (Oooh)
Life was not as we’ve planned
Coz we were born and raised in mud
But we were strong, we were brave
We were bound by our blood
So I took you by the hand
Together swum against the flood
On the faith in which we stand
Is our love (Oooh)
Life was not as we’ve planned
Coz we were born and raised in mud
But we were strong, we were brave
We were bound by our blood
