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, hit you harder than God falls

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

Until it all falls down

And where does that leave me?

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

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

(Fixed, fixed, fixed..)

And I'm in another place to be, where 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

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, 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
