Brother

Brother, come back to me.

This isn't how i remember you.

This hollow perspective.

You had this sun inside you.

It shined right through.

So come back home.

Come back home....

Brother

 

Brother, here I am.

Talk to me, speak with me any time you can.

How can you justify all of this pain?

Why is it, all of it is driving me insane?

So walk with me, and laugh with me

Follow me with clarity.

I will lead, just lead the way

Your consciousness won't fade to grey.

 

So oh my god.

Why are you still waiting here?

Won't you run away?

So follow me, swallow me

I will lead the way.

Don't give up just keep on going

or your pride will sway.

Follow me, follow me.

Brother.

 

Brother, come back home.

Why wont you, why can't you

pick up your ******* phone?

So forget this life that you lead.

All of this could turn to greed.

Trip and fall get up again

You wrote a death note with your pen.

Don't look back to see them laughing.

Don't let them see that you're crying.

 

Now oh my god.

Why am I still waiting here?

I don't know the way.

I'll stay right here, stay right here

You're pushing me away.

Can't give up just keep on going

or my pride will sway

So run away, run away.

Brother.

 

Brother, you are gone.

You left this place, this ***** place

to be the devil's pawn.

This wasn't what I had in mind

I was here, always here

Now there's no where you can hide.

You couldn't try enough..

I wasn't good enough...

I wasn't fast enough..

You weren't strong enough..

And now I've had enough..

 

 

Well oh my god.

Why am I still waiting here?

I can't even move.

I'll follow you, follow you.

You can lead the way.

I'll crumple up this ****** note.

You took my pride away.

I will sway, I will sway

Goodbye, Brother..
