Oh Brother

Oh brother where art thou
Can't you hear me calling
In the night I've reached a
Brand new low
Our sister is dying
And the distance 'tween us
Makes me frightened though it
May not show
I'm weathered, un-tethered
I'm searching for a line
Let's face it, I lost it
Somewhere back in time

So i guess this is goodbye, brother
Be well without me
And I grieve the time you cried beside me
Be well

Oh brother, can you help me
I've been building walls that
Now need to be torn right
To the ground
Oh brother, take aim now
Pull the trigger slowly and my
Breaking heart will
Makes no sound
I'm shattered, unfettered
I'm babbling like a child
Admit it, I missed it
Busy running wild

So i guess this is goodbye, brother
Be well without me
And I grieve the time you cried beside me
Be well

Oh brother, I'm haunted
I abandoned you
When you were desperate to
Keep my pace
Oh brother, un-tethered
You succeeded now at
Taking up the mantle
In my place
I'm shaken, awakened
Adjusting to new eyes
You figure it would hurt
But my heart's cold as ice

So I guess this is goodbye, brother
Be well without me
And I grieve the time you cried beside me
Be well

Oh brother, my brother
Paradox abound and
Death is just another
Part of life
Oh brother, the future
Creeping up behind us
Just in time to see us
Lose our minds
I'm flexing, perplexing
An audience of one
I'm sovereign, unwanted
Having had my fun

So I guess this is goodbye, brother
Be well without me
And I grieve the time you cried beside me
Be well
