Brother - Observer Drift

Only 20-something and I’m sold.

That I’m terrified of getting old.

Can’t wait to see where we’ll be,

Is what we said, but now we don’t speak.

All along I thought that we’d stay strong,

But I’m alone and everything is wrong.

I drag a heavy heart you know.

It beats for reasons I do not know.

So I’ll plant the seed that you left for me

and it will grow until there’s nothing left of me.

'Cause everything that dies must first grow old.

The body withers but the story is told.

Your laughter filled the Earth with love and life.

I really hope that I was a part of the reason why.

I don’t wanna miss you for too long

but I’m scared that if I don’t you’ll come along

looking for me waiting for you still

but find an empty house upon the hill.

If I ever close my eyes to sleep,

at least we still are brothers in my dream

Winter numbs my hands but not the pain.

Seasons change but silence still remains.

So please, brother, come home.

brother come home I don’t wanna miss you for too long

but I’m scared that if I don’t you’ll come along

looking for me waiting for you still

but find an empty house upon the hill.

If I ever close my eyes to sleep,

at least we still are brothers in my dream

Winter numbs my hands but not the pain.

Seasons change but silence still remains.

So please, oh brother, come home.
