Brother

It's been years since we, climbed that tree
Since we swung beneath, since we were wild and free
And when we were young we were so
So god-damn shameless, we wore those dirty trainers
And nothing ever changed much, but we

We grew up and we fit right into place
And we, we kept our names but not much stayed the same
And, we ditched the playground for a lovers parent's house
Everything moves too fast and you can't slow it down

So I'll love my mother
And I'll love my father
And I'll love my brother
As well

And in those years we have, we've shaved our face
And we have found new mates where we've both made mistakes
And I admit, we both have lied too much
We've both done too many drugs
We've both won and lost her trust
And we have both fucked it right up

And it's fair to say that I have
I've fought a war to the point where I forgot
What I was fighting for, but I
I'll still give you blood if you ever needed a donor
And you'd stay up all night and wait until I'm sober

So I'll love my mother
And I'll love my father
And I'll love my brother
As well
So I'll love my mother
And I'll love my father
And I'll love my brother
As well

And since the years have past
The old tree's fallen down
The leaves have all turned brown
And now the wood warms up this house
And all the friends I had
Didn't seem to stick around
And I won't be getting them back
When they've moved on to separate towns

So I'll love my mother - oh I'll love my mother
And I'll love my father - oh I'll love my father
And I'll love my brother - oh I'll love my brother
As well

So I'll love my mother
And I'll love my father
And I'll love my brother
As well
