Listen to ‘The Ties That Bind Us’
Written by Phil Selway
Wait a minute, it's all gone south
Words don't matter I'm all talked out
I wanna show you another way
I wanna shield you from my mistakes
They're the ties that bind us
It's a kind of blindness
Who needs eyes to see
The family madness running through me
You my son I held in my arms
Close and keeping you safe from harm
I wanna show you another way
I wanna keep you from my mistakes
So take me back to a time before
I lost my nerve and the trail went cold
I wanna know there's another way
I wanna shield you from my mistakes
