Brother

You run away but
I don't know where you're running to
You stay awake because you don't want the shadow to catch you
No, you, you lied to me because you're own heart beat haunts you
And there's only so much I can do.

So rest your weary soul
And don't be afraid of growing old
With flowers on your chest
I want you to know you did your best.

I don't know quite what to do
I've spent ten years waiting on you
And my tolerance is thin for these ultimatums and disappointments
If the past means more to you than letting it go,
Then just let me go too
Cause there's only so much I can do.

So, rest your weary soul
And don't be afraid of growing old
With flowers on your chest
I want you to know you did your best.

You've given me no option but to be alone
But I've learned so much and grown so strong that I thank you
For being so cold
You've given me a broken family
But it's okay
I was never much of a son or a brother anyway.

Rest your weary soul
Don't be afraid of growing old.

Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray my heart will find some peace
If I should die before I find the reasons I should wake
Now I lay me down to sleep
I pray my heart will find some peace
If I should die before I find the reasons I should wake.
