All that we've been through and all that we have
Darlin' I won't let you let go just yet
We've been homesick for somewhere that we'll never see
Darlin' let's quit chasing this american dream
Cause it's choking the life out of me
Darlin' I tried to fit the mold
And be someone you could always hold
But were we just trying too hard to be
The perfect unbreakable family
You gave me something that I could not shake
You took apart my heart like it was meant to break
I'm playing the victim in a game that I chose
Darlin' don't remind me this is not how it goes
Love shouldn't cut down to the bone
Darlin' I tried to fit the mold
And be someone you could always hold
But were we just trying too hard to be
The perfect unbreakable family
I waited forever but you never showed
I guess I'm just the bastard left out in the cold
When I was younger, now I can see
This kind of heartache's been all over me
It made me the man I shouldn't be
Darlin' I tried to fit the mold
And be someone you could always hold
But were we just trying too hard to be
The perfect unbreakable family
Yeah we were trying too hard to be
The perfect unbreakable family
