Brotherly Love Lyrics
left with images of you pouring from my eyes:
you young, you here, day dawning, eyes wide.
just images, images
all that's left
all that i can find
like water
from a cactus
in the desert of my mind.
little to big: o' brother, you leave me like blood from my veins.
big to little: o' brother, you leave me like blood from my veins.
in a room that holds you
like a guilt-ridden paralyzing cell:
no calls
no mail
no visitors for you when you're in hell
forced hellos
rushed goodbye's
and best wishes for you in the meantime
my face seen as often as god's
can let guilt have its way of owning you
like a dog.
may to march
march to may
the days fall with the promises i make
like water
from a faucet
into the sink of your faith.
little to big: o' brother, you leave me like blood from my veins.
big to little: o' brother, you leave me like blood from my veins.
we always seem to fall with only words to hold
we always seems to fall with only photos to hold
we always seem to fall with only memories to hold
we always seem to fall without family to hold.
you young, you here, day dawning, eyes wide.
all that's left
all that i can find
from a cactus
in the desert of my mind.
big to little: o' brother, you leave me like blood from my veins.
like a guilt-ridden paralyzing cell:
no mail
no visitors for you when you're in hell
rushed goodbye's
and best wishes for you in the meantime
can let guilt have its way of owning you
like a dog.
march to may
the days fall with the promises i make
from a faucet
into the sink of your faith.
big to little: o' brother, you leave me like blood from my veins.
we always seems to fall with only photos to hold
we always seem to fall with only memories to hold
we always seem to fall without family to hold.

sounds like his brother was in jail or something. and he misses him...a lot, maybe even feels abandoned. i relate to this a lot. when i was 17, my twin brother was in juvy.
Yeah I though that too but when i saw them life he said something about knowing a kid and being to selfish and scared to help him out.
Amazing song
