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 that I can find Like water from a cactus In the desert of my mind O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood from my veins O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood O' brother, you leave me, 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 goodbyes 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 O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood from my veins O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood O' brother, you leave me, you leave me like blood from my veins We always seem to fall with only words to hold We always seem 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
