For My Brother

It would simply say everything

If you would take a pen

And write my name on a friend

Who never cared to let me in

Then take a fast ravine that for

Three 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 and hit you harder than God falls

Oh, Christ, amen, amen, amen

You're such a line to break and I'm

I’m so scared to make another mistake in the end

But I just want to be happy again and I am

Until it all falls down

And where does that leave me?

With things, things, I've got so many things to say

And with a broken heart, and a straight face

I'm saying, brother, help me

It's just a natural phase, that I

I go through and then it's taken away

And then bam, bam, I'm fixed (I’m fixed, I’m fixed)

But I'm in another place to be and I

I can't sleep without the thought of me

Being so, so damn sick (I’m sick, I’m sick, I’m sick)

But take this song, take this song away

Until it all falls down

And where does that leave me?

With things, things, I've got so many things to say

And with 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 candy and Christmasy winter snow

Remember, I love you the same

And I'll strangle your pain

And he tells me to sing, and I sing, and I sing

For my brother who keeps me sane

And tells me everything will be okay

I'm so alone

God, I’m so alone

I’m so alone

I’m alone
