Brothers

Oh you're taking your first breath

A heavy weight now fills your chest

A million strangers see you from the inside

For the first time

You say: It's what I've always meant

Well, now it really makes sense

Oh my brother don't hold your breath

I'll see you from the inside

And you're beautiful

All red and white

Yeah you're beautiful

I'll see you from the inside

Darling say what you want to

I think they'll really love you

Not for what you've done

But for who you've become

And oh my god, what is this

I needed you and you needed it cause

My brother say what you want to

I know that I'll always love you

No one really understands

Oh the fight of a man

Oh the fight of a man, well

You just keep looking at them

Thinking: What can they do that I really can't?

So no one really understands

Oh the fight of a man

Oh the fight to be a man well

You just keep looking at them

Thinking: What can they do?

I know you can

Darling say what you want to

I think they'll really love you

Not for what you've done

But for who you've become

And oh my god, what is this

I needed you and you needed it cause

My brother say what you want to

You should know that I'll always love you

And if you feel like you're too weak

I'll carry you off to sleep, I'll carry you off too

You've always been like a brother to me

I'll carry you off to sleep, I'll carry you with me

Darling say what you want to

I know they really love you

Not for what you've done

But for who you've become

And oh my god, what is this

I needed you and you needed it cause

My brother say what you want to

I know that I'll always love you
