Brother

Sometimes you know you're alive because it hurts A friend told me this, a friend told him this, somebody told him it first And I'll tell it to my brother when he comes to me for comfort Tell it to my brother Your eyes will fill with water if you stare too close A friend told me this, a friend told her this, somebody told her it first And I'll tell it to my brother when he comes to me for comfort Tell it to my brother When he needs to run away When he needs to run away When he needs to run away And if you run, brother, where will you go All the same places I've been before And if you seek out the same as me Please don't make the same mistakes as me A friend told me this, a friend told her this, somebody told him it first And I'll tell it to my brother when he comes to me for comfort Tell it to my brother When he needs to run away When he needs to run away When he needs to run away
