Father Brian Finn Lyrics
Blow on my face
Growing our wings
Feeling the fate
And I held my son
Up in my hands
Follow me child
Follow me man
To the promise land
And you held my hand
Stitched in a cloth
Wrapped in my head
but not the demand
don’t cut off your legs
To anger your hands
its thicker than stone
In a desperate wife
Your desperate husband
You wouldn’t stray
But how far did you go
A curse on your home
And the mighty atoned
The bottom of me
Is emptier now
God than its ever been
And I couldn’t believe
That id ever see
Stop talking to me
And give me some peace
Cause I need one more sign
The limbs of the tree
Stop talking to me
I swear I believe
Cause I need one more sign
As Gideon weeps
Im down on my knees
And I’m freezing
So now I can see
The limbs in the trees
Does anybody know if this is related to father brian Finn from the movie keeping the faith? There us a woman named Anna in the movie. Brian loves anna but secretly she has been seeing his friend. The name struck me at first . . First father brian Finn, then anna. Then I became curious about the plot as well. Thoughts?
his wife's name is Suzanna. ("my visions of suzanna drinking missiles" Memories on a Desk pt 1) Anna must be a nickname.
andy hull posted recently on his myspace that the third album begins with the hero standing over his dead brother. he killed him and i think he family saw.
i hear it as "stitched in a chord" the dilemma over love (you held my hand) and his desire for murder (i held a gun) is playing over and over in his head, thus the next line "wrapped in my head"
does anyone know which song he actually kills his brother i was thinking it could be this one but idk.. p.s why didnt anyone post i was a vampire
He doesn't kill his brother until the first song off of The Good Church
He doesn't kill his brother until the first song off of The Good Church
i would say he kills his brother (if he kills him at all) in either oh no, i tried or i was a vampire
ps. im working on i was a vampire but parts of the song are hard to understand audibly.
I hear, "And I knew the cure, but not the demand" and also instead of, "in a desperate way, your desperate heart's mine", i hear "A desperate wife, a desperate husband". Anybody else?
i completely agree with you ianwellman
any suggestions on the other blanks i have? such as the "stitched in a ____" spot i cant pick out the word there.
thanks buddy.
no problem. and i hear "stitched in a chord," but how much sense does that make? haha.

or possibly stitched in a coat? that would make more sense.

it's clearly something that starts with a C. lol. but i'm not sure what it is yet.

I'm hearing "to anger your hands"
he never kills his brother on the second to last song he says that he sees him standing behind his wife when he returns from see
yeah, he doesn't kill either of them
solidsnake1, you're thinking of the first album, where the second to last track is "I'm Not Ready to Forgive You"
