Brother, my brother

I watched you get so much away

And I cried when you stop lookin' forward

And started to stray

Like an empty canvas hangin' on the wall

You're not sure what to show them

So you show them nothing at all

You're supposed to be strong, supposed to be brave

'Cause that's the way someone I love should behave

You're supposed to be you and not somebody else

'Cause I've always known more about you than myself

It's hard facing the truth

And embracing all the saints of my youth

Heavenly sister

There's nobody safe from your charms

And all the hearts in your wake

As lost as the babe in your arms

You can line them up and knock them over

One by one

But you won't find your happiness

In the warmth of a gun

You're supposed to be patient, supposed to be true

'Cause that's what I always expected of you

You're supposed to be you and not somebody else

'Cause I've always known more about you than myself

It's hard facing the truth

And embracing all the saints of my youth

Father, forgive me for some of the things that I've done

And in turn I'll forgive you for losing the faith of a son

Like a lonely beacon burning in the night

I still know that you're out there,

somewhere out of sight

You're supposed to be loving, courageous and wise

'Cause that's what I see when I look in your eyes

You're supposed to be you and not anyone else

'Cause I trusted you more that I trusted myself

It's hard facing the truth

Hard facing the truth

It's hard facing the truth

And embracing all the saints of my youth
