The world's goin' crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they're breakin' off relationships and
Leavin' on sailin' ships for far and distant shores.
For them it's all over,
But I'm gonna stay.
I wouldn't leave anyway.
I know that someday we'll find a way.
We'll be O.K.
'Cause I'm your brother,
Though I don't even know your name.
I've discovered that,
Deep down inside, you feel the same.
Our friends are leavin'.
Now they seem so far away.
But we shouldn't feel afraid.
There's so much that we can say.
You're my brother,
Though I didn't know you yesterday.
I'm your brother.
Together we can find a way.
The world's goin' crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they're breakin' off relationships and
Leavin' on sailin' ships for far and distant shores.
The old world's fadin'.
Now it seems so far away.
Well, I'm not goin' anywhere.
There's so much that we can share.
I'm your brother.
The world's goin' crazy and
Nobody gives a damn anymore.
And they're breakin' off relationships and
Leavin' on sailin' ships for far and distant shores.
You're my brother,
Though I didn't know you yesterday.
I'm your brother.
Brother, are you really here?
The package I received is gone
Are you a phantom detective?
Can you read my soul backwards?
I would glide with you
If you are a backwards ghost
I will hire you
Brother, are you really home?
Holy as a blessed worm
A paradise ambassador
Bring me to your room
And I will throw you rocks today
And watch them pass right through, you say
And this is not a game or test
We both have done some grieving
Brother, with your vast reward
A treasury you can't afford
Surgeries and innocence abounds
And I have read in paper books
My eyes are glands on twisted hooks
Never have I felt or looked
So sorry for you now
Brother, are you trained to spy?
One eye open, one eye dry
When I die, will you be my neighbor?
Tell me things I like to know
Dressing up from head to toe
Let them know to and fro
From here and tomorrow
Brother, are you really here?
The message I received is gone
Are you a phantom detective?
Can you read my soul backwards?
I would glide with you
If you are a backwards ghost
You should be happy with what you got...
You should be hard to be a brother...
You should be happy with what we give you...
Hand over my face. I am related to my enemy.
My house on fire,
And my big brother come put the blame on me.
He's a-pushin'...I'm being pushed from above.
Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
Better back off of him.
You should not questioh at all his authority...
Use a flag as a bandage.
Stick 'em up, show us your pocket hypocrisy.
In the closet, my pleasures
'Cause my big brother don't want to just let me be.
Oh, and I'm pushin'...oh if I could get above...
Oh, and a brother back to back back,
Keep your back off.
Oh, and I'm pushin'...I'm being pushed from above.
Oh, and a brother, back to back to back,
Better back off of him...
Face down...brother...
Face down... [3X]
In my mind there's a clearing.
Black clouds flow through grey still skies.
And the birds don't even whisper.
I'm flying out...I'm flying...
Back to back back, better back off...
Back to back to back, a better, better, better...
Back to back to back, back to back back...brother...
Face down...brother...
Face down...
Face down...brother...
Face down...almost...fired...
Face down...I got a gun...
Face down...
I got a gun...I got a gun...
Face down...I got a gun...
Face down...
Aah, fuck it, I'm just gonna go home, turn on the fuckin' TV...
Watch the nightly news and drink a beer...
Whoa!Whoa!Whoa!
Somebody's jumping in the tub with your brother (2x)
Whoa!Whoa!Whoa!
Somebody's definitely jumping in the tub with your brother (2x)
Somebody's definitely jumping in the tub with your brother
Jumping in the tub with your cousin
Somebody's definitely jumping in the tub with your brother
Uncle!
Somebody's jumping in the tub with your brother!
Somebody's jumping in the tub with your mother!
Henry
Brother, got to sing your song
Brother, is taking us so long
For the elderly brother has raised us by his love
And to be equal is the freedom of his love
When will we realized that the skin is just a glove
To be thankful for the freedom of his love
Sister, stand up tall and proud
Sister, yell it strong and loud
I'm black and I'm proud
For no human can change the course of time
And no human creates the live in mind
So how can a man makes rules when yet he has no love
And how can a man a woman fill they are above
For an heavenly brother has raised us by his love
And to be equal is the freedom of his love
When will we realized that his skin is just a glove
And be thankful for the freedom of his love
Brother brother brother
Brother brother brother brother
Brother brother brother brother.
Won't you take your words brother?
Won't you mind your world brother?
I find you so offensive punk
Won't you take my word brother?
I tell you no lies now leave me brother
You disturb me turn me hurt me sister
You walk right up to me
Abuse me on the street
Like a cannonball killing me
You got it wrong brother can't you see?
Can't you see?
Won't you walk on home brother?
Won't you live and learn brother?
Think you're a poet? A know it? At your lowest?
Have you lost it? Did you toss it? Double crosses it?
Are you a loser? No one to choose ya? Accuser?
You walk right up to me
Abuse me on the street
Like a cannonball killing me
You got it wrong brother can't you see?
Can't you see?
Don't you push me brother!
Don't you push me brother!
Don't you push me brother!

Don't you push me brother!

Don't you push me brother!
Don't you
Don't you push me brother!
I've got to tell you something
You may just disagree
But always time
If you're in need of assistance
Hold on to me
On to me
This seasons change your sanity
I'd help you on your feet
On your feet
Oh brother
My brother's gone
Oh brother
My brother's gone
I wanna show you something
Just put your trust in me
Trust in me
I shout and scream and I try
You turn your face from me
You just turn away from me
Oh brother
My brother's gone
Hold on to me
Oh brother
My brother's gone
Hold on to me
Oh brother
My brother's gone
My brother's gone
My brother's gone
My brother's gone
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
I find my brother in there
Here in my heart
I find my brother in there
Holdin' my arms
I love you
And if you're feelin' too quiet now
There are no words to show you how
I love you
Dad often feel like the Prodigal Son
Take all I need giving back none
Our beauty shows in such different ways
You're like the light behind the fog so soft
But still you burn my eyes away
I find my brother in there
Here in my heart
I find my brother in there
Holdin' my arms
I love you
And if you're feelin' too quiet now
There are no words to show you how
I love you
So much has changed
So much has happened these years
Still find you are waiting here
We have a bond that nothing can change
And still I find a peace of mind
Whenever I hear your name
I find my brother in there
Here in my heart
I find my brother in there
Holdin' my arms
I love you
And if you feelin' too quiet now
There are no words to show you how
I love you, I love you
We deal in too many externals, brother.
Always afros, handshakes, and dashikis.
Never can a man build a working structure for black capitalism.
Always does the man read Mao or Fanon.
I think I know you would-be black revolutionaries too well.
Standing on a box on a corner, talking about blowing the white boy away.
That's not where it's at, yet, brother.
Calling this man an Uncle Tom,
And telling this woman to get an afro,
But you won't speak to her if she looks like hell, will you, brother?
Some of us been checking you act out kinda closely.
And by now it's looking kinda shaky, the way you been rushing people with your super-black bag.
Jumping down on some black men with both feet because they are after their B.A.
But you're never around when your B.A. is in danger.
I mean your black ASS.
I think it was a little too easy for you to forget that you were a negro before Malcolm.
You drove your white girl through the village every Friday night,
While the grass roots stared in envy and drank wine.
Do you remember?
You need get your memory banks organized, brother.
Show that man you call an Uncle Tom just where he is wrong.
Show that woman that you are a sincere black man.
All we need to do is see you SHUT UP AND BE BLACK.
Help that woman.
Help that man.
Brother
There's so much that I could never say to your face
Bye, bye now
You should know the world and all its ways so find your place
How do I find words that do not condescend
When she bore you before me
'Cause she doesn't need a child, she needs a friend
A son not a sob story
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
And your priority, it must be heard
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
She can't always be there just to hold you down
Our mother
When you are at a age now well life turns around
My brother
Realize that you don't have to answer to no man
Responsibility comes down to you
But how can I expect you to understand
When you live life like its so run through
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
Your priority, it must be heard
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
And your priority, it must be heard
(Now you must have never heard of what she did for you)
'Cause we'll never be the way we were
The way we were, we'll never be
It's four o'clock, the rain has stopped,
he's in too deep here and out of luck
Nowhere he can go
And his old friends, they left the spot
because of the little time he's got
I'd bet they ever warned him though
CHORUS
If you can't give her her space
we're afraid it's too late
You got to let her go now
or we can't help you, brother
All he thinks, "the love is gone
the broken-hearted they must be strong"
You still got us
Well there's this yearning in the stomach
pain and doubt 'bout why she done it
and pride that tells him to shut up
CHORUS
If you're willing to fight
then you'll make it alright
you just got to let her go now
Once I had a brother
ANd we grew up
Looking out for each other
And when he fucked up
I did me best to cover his lies
I hid him from the cops
When he was a runaway
Put him up when he was on the
Streets with no place to stay
And when he lied and stole
I looked the other way
Cuz in time
I knew he would find a way
TO get his life together
ANd we would be alright
If we just stuck together
And somehow we would both
make it through
Somehow we would make it through
Maybe I tried to hard
To be a brother
There comes a time you gotta
Burn your bridges to discover
What you are inside
I thought I knew my brother
But I was wrong
Maybe I'd been lying to myself
All along
WHen he burned his bridges
He burned me at the same time
Well brother, brother
How could you be so hatful
So ungrateful
After all that we'd been through?
Someday you'll get
What's coming to you
Someday you'll get
what's coming to you
You stole my money then my friends
And now my girlfriend too
You say you treat everyone
like a brother
and it's true cuz you
screw over everyone
The way that you screwed me
You're a tumor, a leach
A sore that wont go away
Leaving a path of discarded people
In your wake
You're a thief,
A theif who stole my trust
And that's the worst thing
you could take
But every underdog
Must have his day
So you'd better stay the hell
out of my way
Cuz this dog's day is coming soon
And this dog wont let
Bad feelings pass
This dog wants grudges to last
Cuz this dog won't forget
How he was done in
Well you selfish little
Mother Fucker
I hope I never live
To see you hurt another
Cuz life you touch
Is life you smother
Have you ever
Felt like you could do better
You have to use your umbrella inside
You have to keep your eyes open at all times
Have you ever
made mistakes that you regret
Don't say you never
You can't play a player
Oh you all wish you the best
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
You and all your morals
Worry about them tommorow
Double standers through the roof
You're sitting on the top about to fall through
And you always bring me down
Even though I
Carry the flag around
wanna talk like adultsÿ now?
And hey there little friend
Here's some things I never said
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
And i'll wait for this to blow over
I'll take some time to recover
I'm okay, you okay, we okay now
Me and my brother hikin'
Me and my brother might find a turtle,
Just have some fun.
Me, and my Brother playing with our dog;
two mighty men with a wolf,
who drinks from the gulf.
Cool, calm water will bring back our voice to Mother.
cool, calm water bring your voices back..
I fell down in a creek bed.
Brother wept.
In his face I met fear;
that I could die right there.
Now I've grown bold and lonely,
i shoulda stayed with dear brother,
at home,
we grew up old.
Cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother
cool, calm water bring your voices back
cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother
cool, calm water bring your voices back
da da da da da
da da da da da da da
da da da
la la la la la la
la la la la la la la
la la la
Cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother
cool, calm water bring your voices back
cool, calm water bring your voice back to mother
cool, calm water bring your voices
cool, calm water
cool, calm water
Fourteen years have passed since that day
Your stories are the same but the ends have all changed
You carried on like you were some type of god
Some things will never change
We went home to see our folks
We laughed and we told jokes
It was like we were young again
On that deathbed our mother lay
How long she's got they still can't say
It took all this to get us back together again
How long is this going to last
You can't keep reliving your past
Screwing over the ones that you lone
In the name of some new drug
So brother, raise another pint
Rev up the engine and drive off in the night
See you somewhere some place some time
I know there's better brothers but you're the only one that's mine
I know there's better brothers but you're the only one that's mine
The bondsman came to my door early the next day
He said "I come lookin' for you brother
You don't know what kind of trouble that he's in"
How long is this going to last
You can't keep reliving your past
Johnny law keeps a poundin' at my door
'Cause you screwed up some new score
So he's standing in the doorway like he owns the place
With a look of smug satisfaction on his face
I'm gonna give you up
Of that he's sure as hell
But I take one look at him and I know I'll never tell
So brother, raise another pint
Rev up the engine and drive off in the night
See you somewhere some place some time
I know there's better brother's but you're the only one that's mine
So brother, raise another pint
Rev up the engine and drive off in the night
I still look out for you no matter what you heard.
They can knock all of my doors down but I won't say a word.
They can knock all of my doors down but I won't say a word.
Brother, oh brother
Go where the flow feels right, you said
Where the tide rise high and darkness fills the night
Fly into the heavenly/stolen sky
Then when they'll take you down
Take them down with you
Into the suburban nightmare
This story began before I was born
A childless woman cried sadly at home
Her maid gave birth to a child of her own
My father felt joy yet he was torn
A conflict began one day at dawn
The maid took your hand and you were gone
To the desert you left, towards the unknown
I reckon you were so alone
God will hear you oh, my blood
For the years you roamed in dirt and mud
Forsaken like a nomad, deserted in the flood
Forgive me, brother
You did nothing wrong and took all the shame
I suffered myself, yet I am to blame
The lord blessed us both, but we still fight and claim
That kid on the mountain, - what was his name?
Brother hear my plea tonight
I grew tired from these endless years of (Our) fight
From a tiny corner stone we may build our realm of light
What have you done?
Sticking needles in your arm
Brother
Never said we'd walk
Away from family
These so called friends
They kept pushing you in
I hate my love for you
But you cared for me so I cared for you
Brother oh will you come home
You've hit the ground so hard
It's breaking me, breaking me, down
Brother brother oh we make a stand
You've hit the ground so hard
So take my hand
You said yourself you were done with this
I believed you, it's the trust I miss
When my eyes wanted to lie
Well I am your friend
Talk to me, tell me anything
I love you despite everything
This is family
Brother oh will you come home?
You've hit the ground so hard
It's breaking me, breaking me down
Brother brother oh we make a stand
You've hit the ground so hard
So take my hand
This means everything to me
This means everything..to me
(crazy scream super fast amazing)
(amazing solo by I'm presuming "the shredder")
Brother...oh will you come home
You've hit the ground so hard
It breaks my heart
Brother oh will you come
You've hit the ground so hard
They said you knew how to kill and how to maim
They lied, you tried, bend the truth, they won't allow mistakes
You're alive and doing good
Just as long as you can hunt
You will be like this forever
You're never coming home
They said you would get the best of everything
They lied, you tried, every day they laughed at you
Death, my brother, I told him never to go there
Remorse, my bother, they had him taken on his way to war
War- he's taken ill
War- and then some more
War- it's everyday
War- it's everywhere
Still alive and feeling well, wont you come and join us
We will be here for a while, our time is all we've got
We're alive and feeling well, do we wanna change this
What the hell is going on, do we deserve the pain
So they said you will defend your country in every way
But they lied, and they tried to hold you into their pride
Hate, my brother its waiting for a no good cause
Belive, my brother, one day you will come back home from war
War- he still exists
War- he's nothing more
War- he's had enough
War- can take no more
We're alive and feeling well, do we wanna change this
What the hell is going on, do we deserve the pain
Dead, my brother, I told him never to go there
Me, and my Brother hiking.
Me, and my Brother might find a turtle.
We'll just have some fun.
st thomas and an old man walkin'
and he tells him
go your own way, be your own stay
don't matter what they all say
in the middle of a fire
you feel the need to run
the only way to make it
is to stand like a stone
all alone
st thomas and a middle man walkin'
and he tells him
take it day by day
never see the grey
no one know how the cards'll lay
it's a crisis of my time and my
spirit, i have no energy
creativity only flows, i suppose
when the desert runs dry
brother
don't you see my hands are holed
can you reach out for my side
touch me
stop doubting just believe
thomas looks alot like me
st thomas and a young man walkin'
and he tells him
live the good life
find a good wife,
don't think about the dream
the clock hangs like a thief
on the wall, like punishment
for what i want, for what i need,
and how far away it is from me
brother
don't you see my hands are holed
can you reach out for my side
touch me
stop doubting just believe...
st thomas and a dead man walkin'
and he thinks
i'll go my own way
never have to pay...
brother
don't you see my hands are holed
can you reach out for my side
touch me
Brother, my intentions they are pure
I'd rather fight for you than in the holy war
Which I am not connected to
I've been a hundred miles away
There's nothing words can say
But brothers we are
Oh, brothers we are
You are the star tonight
It's 1989, so take your time
It's a once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime-deal
You are the star tonight
So brother, make it right
And hit the lights
It's a once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime-deal
Brother, you and I we look the same
You might not want to know
But that's what I've been told
And heroes don't come easily
In a hundred years from now
We've lost the track of time
But brothers we are
Oh, brothers we are
You are the star tonight
It's 1989, so take your time
It's a once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime-deal
You are the star tonight
So brother, make it right
And hit the lights
It's a once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime-deal
Once in a lifetime, once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime chance
You are the star tonight
It's 1989, so take your time
It's a once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime-deal
You are the star tonight
So brother, make it right
And hit the lights
It's a once in a lifetime
I've got a lot that's on my mind today
But every man got a story to tell
My brother watched his life go down the drain
His addiction took control of him
Everytime I see my brother look at me
I turn my head, to me he's dead
So much pressure, so much pain
Everything to lose and nothing to gain
But I'm going on again
It's everything that he ever dreamed
Says things he doesn't mean
But I'm going on again
Please my mother don't cry today
I know it's hard cause he's your first born son
Don't blame yourself for the decisions made
I think it's time, we just let him go
So much pressure, so much pain
Everything to lose and nothing to gain
But I'm going on again
It's everything that he ever dreamed
Says things he doesn't mean
But I'm going on again
All the times you lie
Tell me that you changed
But you never did
You just walked away
It always stays the same
Every time you cried
And you felt afraid
Look at what you did
Now just walk away
You'll never change
So much pressure, so much pain
Everything to lose and nothing to gain
But I'm going on again
So much pressure, so much pain
Everything to lose and nothing to gain
But I'm going on again
It's everything that he ever dreamed
Says things he doesn't mean
Dear Brother
I'm worried
I've never seen you act like
You wanna take your life
You've gotta think this over
'Cause every time I try to plea
You just push me away
All you pain is killing me
But you're so blind, you don't see
Breakdown
You try to be something you're not
Would someone please just make this stop
It doesn't have to be this way
Would someone please just make this Stop!
Dear mother
I'm sorry
I never thought he'd do it
He hadn't known her long
He really took it too hard
Did anyone try to see
Why did I leave him alone
Nothing can change this now
If I could go back somehow
'Cause you're already gone
You thought that life was so long
I though you'd carry on
I thought that you would be strong, but you're a victim
You can't look me in the face
Another victim
That time will probably erase
You know I've eaten your lies
You know I've swallowed your pride
You know that you can't disguise
You can't look me in the eyes
And when I needed you
You could never be found
I tried to set you free
But you were dead to the sound and now
Dear father, in heaven
Please take him in your hands now
I know that he's done wrong
I can't believe that he's gone
Why don't you make this
So please just make this
Why don't you make this
When we were young,
Life was so unjust,
At times i felt it was just us,
Mama working hard to put food on the table.
All on her own she sacrafised,
Even when my brothers and sisters died,
Some how she stayed strong,
I never saw her cry.
I was the oldet and responsibility was so immense,
The tension,
We'd disagree,
So i left, at the time I felt she hated me.
Told me to be strong,
Told me to hang on,
Hugged Me tight,
And said "Big Sister It'll be alright"...
Brother, I love ya,
Little brother,
I thank God for ya every day,
Little Brother,
I Love Ya,
And I pray he'll never take you away.
When my soul withered and i lived in the dark,
An emptiness it filled my heart.
U Never stopped holdin' me,
Never stopped tryin' to open me up.
The days and nights I spent stressin',
The years I spent In depression,
This is my confession.
Thought about ending it sometimes,
But the second you crossed my mind,
I knew, I could never leave you.
Made me believe,
You set me free,
To this day, all I say and do, i owe it all to you.
Ooh,
I would lie for you,
Cry for you,
Ride or die for you,
Touch the sky for you,
If you asked me to
Theres nothin i wont do
I took this life for joke
I would drink or smoke
To ease away the pain
And forget the memories up in my brain
But you helped me to stop the rain
here we go
they're back again
look alive , warn your friends
we are warm and we are safe
enjoy it while you can before
things change
we have got to take cover,
brother
we have got to take cover,
brother
lie down in a field if you can
look at the night sky
oh, where does it end?
sometimes it hurts when you
care about me
but it's going to hurt more when
they take you away from me
we have go to take cover, brother
we have got to take cover, brother
here we go again
oh midnight knocks!
oh explosions!
maybe it's all made up in our heads
this happens to me when i'm bored
or depressed
here is the best part of the song
where i admit that i might be wrong
because if they are good and if
they are right
then they'll have their rapture one
of these nights
It flashes suddenly like lightning, there is the path where a miracle passed, don't let it get away.
You need to be sober in business, but keep yourself high, don't let down your dream, but never
choose to live with your dream.
Stop your idle prattle, don't waste your time, stay calm and dance on the wind.
Funk is an aesthetic for those who make moves, there's only one chance for the 101th among 100.
This scene where the soot of pressure chokes you, no matter how fast you move, the calendar never moves backwards.
Remember the days of hardship and humiliation, fully peonged attack 'cause this may be your only chance.
Those who can bare the next era have gathered, no wonder this place has such rousing heat.
Adieu, your turn now, I'll be watching you BROTHER to see if you shine.
When I compare myself to you when I was your age, I was not able to see all the possibilities you
are seeing now.
I say fortunate and fame are shady, i'll teach you what that means when you grow up and catch me up.
The plan you have told me about triumphantly, is like a sickly sweet pie.
I know you are afraid of dark places, I'm sorry but I can't waste my time any longer with your
cheap sense of solidarity.
A true brother who cn deal with me one-on-one, is somebody who is always at the forefront of advancement.
If you wish to be protected from degenerating seasons, spend a little time alone in silence.
Use your head, how many cards do we hold against our chests? Constatly think that your opponent
has one more.
There's the possibility of failure in everything, but don't you worry, just remember to keep your
head down when you succeed.
The two from "CHOP" are the most successful from the class of Sapporo46, who forcibly got themselves
out of living from hand to mouth.
"STRAIGHT UP" proved to have clairvoyance, BIG UP to Hokkaido, WE ARE THE GOLD DIGGERS.
'Cause we are from the same generation, we see clearly that our competitive spirit swallows up jealousies and greed.
In high speed, a dead heat of passing and getting passed, let us be like this forever.
There were many nights that are remembered as legendary, "WONDER" and "PRECIOUS" with only the regulars staying on.
"SOUL COP", "AL'S BAR". "GHETTO" and "WALL", they have all but buried Sapporo's solid gold pride.
Consequently, all the radio stations in town, never had understanding only collusion.
Martyr-like pioneers jave discovered their values in an early morning session in the basement.
Continuation, is just another from of battle, I learned that lesson from "OLD CROW" and "LONG RUN BOXER".
And the "BOURBON BROTHERS" of nightly OVERDOSE, a toast at 10 in the mornig is not unusual here.
The men who live with a spirit of chivalry instead of profit, will be talked-about for generations,
respectable big shots.
Let me dance on top of your isolator, and proudly introduce myself as Sapporo's new face.
At least until I grow up to be your age, there is no excuse for us to stop here.
The field that they once cultivated, has spread all over the world, and now BLUE bloom.
Brother you were never there for me
When the children needed peace you disgraced both families
Brother you were never there for me
When my father died I thought that you would take my hand
You said I was just too young
Sister I can tell you all the love I have for you
Our mother sleeps in silent peace because your love was pure
But brother you were never there for me
When my father died I thought that you would take my hand
You said I was just too young
If I could erase one moment of pain
I'd throw away everything, even fame
If I could play god do you know what I'd do?
I'd swim through your blood and kill the cancer in you
Brother you were never there for me
I was just too young but now I've grown and I can say
That brother you were never there for me
When my father died I thought that you would take my hand
You said I was just too young
If I could play god
I'd swim through your blood and kill the cancer in you
THE COLD FORCED ME TO GROW
INTO A STELLAR MASS
AS THESE ARMS BROKE
MY BODIES JOINED AS ONE
A MOUNTAIN I HAVE BECOME
AND YOU WEEP SISTER
WAVES RUN DOWN MY FACE
SOLEMN SKIES CALL MY NAME
AND TO THE STARS YOU MUST GO
MY HEART WILL BREAK THE EARTH
YOUR TEARS WILL PIERCE THEIR DEPTHS
MY VEINS WILL CARVE VALLEYS
YOUR COLD WILL BURN THEIR SHELLS
AND SOMEDAY I'LL RETURN HOME
YOU KNOW I'LL BE WAITING
YOU KNOW I'LL EMBRACE THEM
YOU WILL HOLLOW THEIR BLACK HEARTS
I WILL HOLLOW THEIR SCORCHED EARTH
I WILL GROW
AND SCRAPE ACROSS THE LAND
I AM RIVERS
OF BLUE CRYSTAL KNIVES
I SINK INTO THEIR BODY
AND GROW INTO THEIR HEAVENS
I AM CARVING INTO THEM
I'LL SCRAPE THEIR BLACK HEARTS
AND MAKE THEM HOLLOW INSIDE
I AM ALL AND CANT BE STOPPED
I AM ALL
AND I CANNOT BE STOPPED
I WILL GROW
I'm gonna let my walls come down,
Hold my breath until I drown,
Take me up with a bottle of gin,
Oh my brother let me in
Walking through this desert town,
I found my brother on the ground,
I said take my hand and I'll pick you up,
Take you to a place where the waters rough
Cause we're all dreaming of waking up
I'll tell you now again,
My brother you're my friend,
Though sticks and stones may break my bones,
I'll be here till the end,
My brother you're my friend
Five years gone since father passed,
You told yourself this draught won't last,
Well I stood by and watched the rain,
Swear the skies will clear someday
And the sun will shine on your parade
I'll tell you now again,
My brother you're my friend,
Though sticks and stones may break my bones,
I'll be here till the end,
My brother you're my friend
I'll be here till the end,
Once upon a time I knew everything
When I stop to think back on everything
It all runs away like a memory
Once there was a picture of a happy place
But I always keep thinking what a great place to leave
I'd trade it all
To have you all here with me
Father, when you coming by?
Mother, leave the light on again
Sister with someone somewhere, somewhere
Brother, brother, brother
Trailer park heaven was a dream to me
'Cause we had it figured out
Simple and not jaded
There was a promise of a brighter day
But soon it would all fade out
I'd trade it all
To have you all here with me
Father, when you coming by?
Mother, leave the light on again
Sister with someone somewhere, somewhere
Brother, brother, brother
When it's something we love that keeps us away
Well it costs even more
And its so much to pay
To have you all here with me
Father, when you coming by?
Mother, leave the light on again
Sister with someone somewhere somewhere
Brother, brother, brother
Brother, brother, brother
Brother, If your passing through, let me know,
Cos I swear, Well its been so long, that I can’t
remember..
And you can’t leave me here,
Just floating on,
When there’s no-one left,
For me to lean upon,
Brother, Your somewhere else, I had to find,
Tell me where, Will you run to now, there’s nothing
left..
Cos you can’t leave me here,
Just floating on,
When there’s no-one left,
Brother, I was weak when you were strong,
you suffer of my own making.
Would you accept my apologies in advance?
I can't help myself to walk away
I chain you to this earth
I watch the shovel turn
I see you lowered down
under this hollowed ground
I'm powerless to change
your bitter fate
cowardice and pain
but I won't turn away
I led you to this path
you tread alone
And I chose the eastern star,
but it was a false dawn.
The nightmare rained down hard,
on those I had convinced I knew it all.
I'm powerless to change
your bitter fate
cowardice and pain
but I won't turn away
I led you to this path
Isn’t it strange
Back here again
The red brick house and all the trees
I climbed then
Nothing changed
Same as before
The only thing I see is you’re
here we go
they're back again
look alive , warn your friends
we are warm and we are safe
enjoy it while you can before
things change
we have got to take cover,
brother
we have got to take cover,
brother
lie down in a field if you can
look at the night sky
oh, where does it end?
sometimes it hurts when you
care about me
but it's going to hurt more when
they take you away from me
we have go to take cover, brother
we have got to take cover, brother
here we go again
oh midnight knocks!
oh explosions!
maybe it's all made up in our heads
this happens to me when i'm bored
or depressed
here is the best part of the song
where i admit that i might be wrong
because if they are good and if
they are right
then they'll have their rapture one
of these nights
but if they are wrong........
brother
these shotguns are keeping me awake at night
- you know i'm praying then for you
brother
and everything they say is so black and white
- it is the way that they get you
you left me here, like a pearl inside its shell
brother
if anything, get me out of here
i am here for you
like you want me to
we'll make everything good
brother
tell me what it is that's going wrong with me
- i don't know right from wrong myself
i've got shotguns hanging in the air all around me
one is sticking right out of my
mouth and it's letting no one close to me
i feel lonely, like a pearl inside its shell
brother
help me out of here
remember...
birds and fishes around the pond we rested by
words and wishes secrets that we shared that night
trees and flowers faces in the pale moonlight
streets and towers places where we went at night
He grew and drew and you smiled
He built a glider in our living room,
Taught my brother to fly
He was smart
He was beautiful to you
To me
That’s why we couldn’t bear it
Though he’d never share it,
We heard him cry himself to sleep.
Chorus:
How His hands move
How the wheel turns
How clay softens
How exquisite
He left, you never stopped aching
He married, you gave disappointed congratulations
He was twice a father, two lovely daughters
And you glowed
You glow.
Until again, he will be a father
And you took a walk that night
You cried, “He’s unprepared!”
And you were scared,
So you took a walk that night
But his sister knows in her heart it will be all right
His sister knows in her heart it will be all right
And I do.
I know in my heart it will be all right.
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
If time, is in motion
I'll be, high as the tide
With no peace, to speak of being satisfied
If love, is a language,
I will cut out my tongue
No use for singin' the songs already been sung
If Spring has the answer,
lonely women,
you'll be on my mind
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
The faith, of a sea
Could move a mountain indeed
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Peace, like a river both deep and wide
Stand on the banks and watch her pass me by
If love has an answer, then momma you'll be on my mind
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
Sister there's just no fool in me
Brother I'm a fool, can't you see
I woke up
to diseases
I shut out
tv screens and
then I cut
away sneezing
then I cut
I am a knight
I am a color oh
I am a light
I am your brother oh
I sat still
with a syrup
I feel ill
it'll clear up
take my pill
you don't fear us
take my pill
with this syrup
I am a knight
I am a color oh
I am a light
I am your brother oh
Swing
Swing
Swing
I climbed hills of chimneys tall like butter
tall like caverns in my teeth
and when I came to I did shutter
We were trying to believe
And when the day has ended
And when our hearts unfold
We'll glow like the night sky oh
Brother, you and I both know
Brother, you and I both know, what you're doin'
Brother, I've seen you before
Brother, I'm pretty sure, I''ve seen you before cryin'
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
He used to put me in the
Sand, sand, sand, sand, sand
And put a bullet in my gullet
Lino table tops, cowboy teas
Always enough for you, always enough for me
I can still see him leaning over my meal
I can still see him pouring for me my tea
And keep sake once, three, four
But the girls up Swan Street must cost you more
Now you've got the money
And bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
I'll get you in the sand, sand, sand, sand, sand
And keep well, one, three, four
The chance might not come again like it did before
Sleep now under my skin
Make sure you'll try to
Conjure the wind
And ease my mind
Somebody call out to your brother
He's calling out your name
Ooh ooh ooh
Hiding under the covers
With no one else to blame
Ooh ooh ooh
You couldn't help out your own neighbor
You couldn't tell it to his face
You were f*cked up by the blame
You cower in the corner
Confide in your father
Let it out and say
Let it pass away
Sleep now under my skin
Make sure you try to
Conjure the wind
And ease my mind
And I said
Ooh ooh ooh...
Somebody call out to your brother
He's calling out your name
Ooh ooh ooh
Hiding under the covers
With no one else to blame
Ooh ooh ooh
You couldn't help out your own neighbor
You couldn't tell it to his face
You were f*cked up by the blame
You cower in the corner
Confide in your father
Let it out and say
You cower in the corner
Confide in your father
Let it break your day
Let it out and say
Wait there
Pull yourself out of this state dear
Acknowledge you were a fake here
From there on you might just grow
Oh oh oh
Somebody call out to your brother
He's calling out your name
Ooh ooh ooh
Hiding under the covers
With no one else to blame
Ooh ooh ooh
Oh, you couldn't help out your own neighbor
You couldn't tell it to his face
My bloodpump is aging
It's cluttered and weak
All systems are failing baby
I think there might be a leak
You just need a friend Kris
Fuck You!
That special someone
I said Fuck You!
You just need a friend Kris
Argh, Piss off!
All you need is LOVE!
If I ever wanted a brother
I'd kill my dad and fuck my mother!
The cold blood in my veins
Is slowing me down
I just need some kind of restart
Before I drown
You just need a friend Kris
Oh Fuck You!
That special someone
Why don't you piss off?
You just need a friend Kris
Fuck You!
All you need is LOVE!
If I ever wanted a brother
I'd kill my dad and fuck my mother!
If I ever wanted a brother
I'd kill my dad and fuck my mother!
If I ever wanted a brother
I'd kill my dad and fuck my mother!
If I ever wanted a brother
I'd kill my dad and fuck my mother!
I'll fuck my mother
Goddamn I'll fuck her!
I'll fuck her so good!
waking up
breaking down
hold that thought
i'm not through yet
waking up
breaking down
me and my brother
never meant no harm
me and my brother
let time fall through our open arms
let me go through your silent wall
free fall and begin again
waking up
this life never ends
me and my brother never meant no harm
Call me up in the dead of an eye
Barely make your voice on the line
The fresh taste of the mistakes
Pray these words come out right
Brother won't come back home
Tired of when you did show
And you still so young to feel this soul
The silence broke with me holding hope
In the palm of my hand like a distant ghost
Tired and bored of keeping the score
Who's wrong, who's right, don't care no more
Brother will come back home
Tired, of when it show
You still show young to feel this road
The time's not wasted, yeah
Brother won't come back home
Tired of when you show
You still so young to feel this soul
The time's not wasted, yeah, wasted, wasted
Lying in the dirt can't leave it behind you
Everything you were you
But I can still see laugh deep inside
Time to break free, love you cannot undue
Cannot undue, cannot undue
Brother will come back home
Tired of when it show
You still show young to feel this road
The time's not wasted, yeah
Brother won't come back home
Tired of when you show
You still so young to feel this soul
Somewhere over the earth
A song, a song
Somewhere I have heard
My brother is gone
Away, under the moon
Brother, brother
Away, gone so soon
Still singing his tune
Still singing his tune
And away he gone day
And away he gone night
And away he gone dark
And away he gone light
Up and away he gone away
But in a way he gonna stay
Oh, brother of hearts
We'll be singing someday
Yeah, we'll be singing someday
Oh, we'll be singing someday
Oh, brother of hearts
We'll be singing someday
Undead audio
Yes, we'll be singing right now
Some say I am to blame
Brother, brother
Some days I fell the same
And feeling that shame
Away under the moon
Brother, brother
Away gone so soon
Still singing this tune
Still singing his tune
And away he gone day
And away he gone night
And away he gone dark
And away he gone light
Up and away he gone away
But in a way he gonna stay
Oh, brother of hearts
We'll be singing someday
Yeah, we'll be singing someday
Oh, singing someday
Oh, brother of hearts
We'll be singing someday
Undead audio
I've never been unhappy or alone
Each day daylight came back
I always watched the stars
Not thinking space big and dark
Rains always were my friend
The wind knew all my secrets
Brother do you know that the times are hard
Do you wanna see my eyes
Make a start
Cause brother do you see that the times are hard
I need love
I do not fear the shadows of trees
But city shadows don't move
I saw a child of God. He was
Someday to grow into the world
Brother do you know that the times are hard
Do you wanna see my eyes
Make a start
Cause brother do you see that the times are hard
Brother, I'm scared
You pretend that this is fair
But I've lost a friend
I watched you crash
You hated yourself
While the change I saved disappeared off my shelf
Just like that, you were gone
You were the only friend I needed, but you went away
Where did you go
Brother, you know where I'll be
Why did you go
You're not alone
There's always a way to come back home
I think mom's scared
I know she's not alright
She cries to sleep
I can hear every night
I can't help
Make her smile
You know how hard it is to hear mom cry
Well I do when she cries over you
Every day, I'll be waiting
Every day, I'll be praying
Praying for your call
Praying for us all
Sitting in my truck
In the lot of restraint
I think I like the picture
But I do not like the paint
Every man seems rich in wealth or wealth in mind
I guess my window's comin'
This is just my space in time
I do not have misfortune
What I made, I made my own
I just want redemption for the things that I owe
I do not have misfortune
What I made, I made my own
I just want redemption for the things that I owe
It's hard to hear you brother
Sometimes I can't relate
And even when were happy
It feels that I'm too late
The Colors do not match
Perspective is all wrong
The frame is just plain ugly
And I feel like movin' on
There is so much hate, pourin' from your eyes
Can you find the strength to forgive for those times?
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will stand beside even though were not the same
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will always stand beside you even though were not the same
It's hard to hear you brother
Sometimes I can't relate
And even when were happy
It feels that I'm too late
It's hard to hear you brother
When you sing your broken songs
I'm stuck and feeling helpless
And its been way too long
(Solo)
There is so much hate, pourin' from your eyes
Can you find the strength to forgive for those times?
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will stand beside even though were not the same
So here I am your blood, and blood I will remain
I will always stand beside you even though were not the same
It's hard to hear you brother
Sometimes I can't relate
And even when were happy
It feels that I'm too late
It's hard to hear you brother
When you sing your broken songs
I'm stuck and feeling helpless
Phone ring 2 timesYeah mahn here's your song
Oh so she got you and your turned around again
She got you oh yes your thinking it's the end
Oh now she got you and she with another man
She got you struck down by your woman's hand
Bridge
She's fighting this war
And the enemy has gone
She's fighting this war
She's already won
(oh whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa oh won)
Chorus
Thinking about the times when you left her high
You've been thinking about the times when you left her dry ya know
Now she's saying goodbye
You're thinking about the times when you done her wrong brother
Think about the strings that she's pulling on
And the good times only last so long
She's appearing in those places where she don't belong
Oh now Brother move on
Oh now she got you and you're joining in the trend
She got you thinking that you can just be friends
And now you're broken pieces on the ground she's walking on you
And she's not even looking down
Bridge
She's fighting this war
Oh yes and the enemy has gone (oh long gone)
She's fighting this war
She's already won
(oh whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa oh won)
Chorus
Thinking about the times when you left her high
You've been thinking about the times when you left her dry ya know
Now she's saying goodbye
You're thinking about the times when you done her wrong brother
Think about the strings that she's pulling on
And the good times only last so long
She's appearing in those places where she don't belong
Oh now Brother move on
(Repeat Chorus)
God I need love Time off for my tender fall and now
Gotta save a friend soul You'll fix the broken me bro'
God I need love Time off for my tender fall And now
Gotta save a friend soul You'll fix the broken me bro'
Can't you see this? I'm a man without tomorrow
She's just a ghost But I cannot stop myself from loving her
Can you save me? I'm a man stuck here forever
God I need love Time off for my tender fall and now
Gotta save a friend soul You'll fix the broken me bro'
and now you'll broken me
broken me, bro, bro
Can't you see this? I'm a man without tomorrow
She's just a ghost But I cannot stop myself from loving her
Can you save me? I'm a man stuck here forever
She's just a ghost But I cannot stop myself from loving her
Can you save me?
Can you save me?
Can you save me brother?
Can you save me?
Brother, I'm in need of a friend
for I am drowning in disarray
And brother, it is on you I depend
to pull me out of this misery
Like a hero I've always seen you
even though I would never say
And through the years
the laughter and the tears
it's you who were strong
in the right and the wrong
a tribute to the world that
blood is thicker than water
I'm tryin' to say that I love you
I'm tryin to say that I need you,
Brother
And father, I'm in need of your hand
so I can face the world bravely
and father, do you understand
what it is you mean to me
Like a warrior you always conquered
every battle you had to face
And through the hard times
when life was a bitter fight
it's you who would give
so unselfish you lived
A tribute to the world that blood
Is thicker than water
I'm tryin' to say that I love you
I'm tryin' to say that I miss you
Brother there are many things I wish I could say to you
like I know that your heart has sunk like a stone to the
bottom of a lake and has been left there to shudder.
Oh.... Oh..... Oh..... Things may never be the same. We
may never laugh again. And life may never make sense for
you, but don't worry to hard it doesn't make much sense
Sat on this tree trunk
Listen to him play
He slides his fingers on the strings of his guitar
He plays what he is
Melody's n'tunes pour out of him
He stopped playing music we can hear
Feel the reflexion of his life, his ways, of a thousand
stars
Listen
Don't cry
Come with me
I'm with u
He plays what he is
Melody's n'tunes pour out of him
He plays what he is
What surrounds him remains a mystery
Sat on this tree trunk
Listen to him play
He slides his fingers on the strings of his guitar
He plays what he is
Melody's n'tunes pour out of him
He plays what he is
What surrounds him remains a mystery
Listen
Don't cry
Come with me
I'm with u
When he closes his eyes
When he closes his eyes
When he closes his eyes
The desire to follow him submerges us
Everything he does
Makes him what he is
Everything he does
Makes him what he is
Everything he does
Makes him what he is
Everything he does
Makes him what he is
Everything he does
How long have I known you, brother
Hundreds of lives, thousands of years
How many miles have we wandered
Under the sky, chasing our fear
Some kind of trouble is coming
Don't know when, don't know what
I will stand by you, brother
'Til the daylight comes or I'm dead and gone
I've shared my life with you, brother
Since I recall, you've been my friend
You say we're not like the others
Still we must die, all things must end
I know we can't stop what's coming
But I will try, oh how I'll try!
Will you fight with me, brother
One last time, one last fight
Don't turn away, don't tell me that we're not the same
We face the fire together, brothers 'til the end
Don't run away, our time will come but not today
I stand beside you, brother, with you 'til the end
