For My Brother
It would simply say everythingIf you would take a pen and write my nameOn a friend who never cared to let me in.
Then take a fast ravine that forThree years swimming straight upstream and the wind,The wind will drag me down in the end.
You live inside my wall and I,I reach back, hit your harder than God fallsChrist, Amen, Amen, Amen.You're such a line to break and I'm,I'm so scared to make another mistake in the endBut I just want to be happy again
Until it all falls down,And where does that leave me?With things, things, I've got so many things to sayWith a broken heart and a straight faceI'm saying "brother, help me"
It's just a natural phase that I,I go through and then it's taken awayAnd then bam, bam, I'm fixed(Fixed, fixed, fixed)And I'm in another place to be where I,I can't sleep withoutThe thought of me being so, so damn sick(I'm sick, I'm sick, I'm sick)
But take this song, take this song awayUntil it all falls down,And where does that leave me?With things, things, I've got so many things to sayWith a broken heart and a straight face
And he says "reach for the girl,Reach for the girl and hold her close.Believe you can shine when you're silver,And I promise you gold,I promise you gold.And whenever you're dark inside,Don't let go.No, don't let go.Remember there's rain and there's candyAnd Christmasy winter snow.And remember I love you the sameAnd I'll strangle your pain"And he tells me to sing, and I sing,And I sing for my brother who keeps me saneAnd tells me everything will be... ok.
I'm so aloneGod, I'm so aloneI'm so aloneI'm alone
