For My Brother Lyrics

For My Brother lyrics

You're simply saying everything if you will

 Take a pen and write my name on a friend

 Who never cared to let me in

 And take a vast revine that for

 Three years swimmin' straight upstream

 And the wind...the wind won't drag me down the end

 

 You live inside my wall and I

 I reach back, hit you harder than God falls

 Christ, Amen, Amen, Amen

 You're such a line to break and I

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

 

 But I just wanna be happy again

 Until it all falls down

 And where does that leave me?

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

 And with a broken heart, and a straight face

 I'm sayin' 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

 Yeah, and I'm in another place to be where I

 I can't sleep without the thought of me being so

 So damned sick

 

 Take this song, take this song away

 Until it all falls down

 And where does that leave me?

 Well, 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

 And remember I love you the same

 And I'll strangle your pain

 And he tells me to sing

 So I sing, so I sing

 For my brother who keeps me safe

 And tells me everything will be OK.
