Brother

in AlbumSap

Frozen in the place I hide

Not afraid to paint my sky with

Some who say I've lost my mind

Brother try and hope to find

You were always so far away

I know that pain so don't you run away

Like you used to do

Roses in a vase of white

Bloodied by the thorns beside the leaves

That fall because my hand is pulling them hard as I can

You were always so far away

I know that pain and I won't run away

Like I used to do

Pictures in a box at home

Yellowing and green with mold

So I can barely see your face

Wonder how that color taste

You were always so far away

I know the way so don't you run away

Like you used to do

Like you used to do
