We Were Brothers

Father told us that it happened
Long before we could think, before we would wonder
For a time we both believed him
It was easy when we were young before we were different
But now I wonder how
What I've got inside is inside you at all?
And I've gotta get it out
I've gotta rip it out
I've gotta tear it out but nothing is working

Maybe I was just born
Maybe I was just born to be what I am now
We'll find out

What if it never leaves me?
What if it never leaves me?
Does that mean we're not brothers?
And if you don't believe me
And If you do believe me
Remember we were just like brothers

We'd never seen a picture of her
You said they were much too hard to keep for all of the things that would never be
But you were there with her in my dreams
You were there with our mother
But now our mother, she is gone
So I wonder how
What I've got inside was inside her at all
Did she ever have to push it out?
Did she ever have to force it out?
Did she ever have to burst it out?
Was I ever in her?

Maybe I was just born
Maybe I was just born to be what I am now
We'll find out

What if it never leaves me?
What if it never leaves me?
Does that mean that we're not brothers?
And if you don't believe me
And if you do believe me
Remember we were just like brothers
We were brothers

We were brothers
We were brothers
We were brothers
If not in blood
We were brothers
We were brothers, oh
If not in blood
Brothers
(We were brothers)
We were brothers
(We were brothers)
We were brothers
If not in blood
We were brothers
(We were brothers)
We were brothers
(We were brothers)
We were brothers
If not in blood
We were brothers
(We were brothers)
We were brothers
(We were brothers)
We were brothers, oh
If not in blood
