Lyrics
Brother, the bodies are falling again
the days drag and the sunlight is no one's friend
I write my life hour to hour, unsorted as ever
but I can't help but pick you up
Brother, so much history in your head
You've been all around but now your eyes are dim
The shrapnel, death, and the bombs and you still carried on
But you can't look me in the face
Brother, you're sailing black seas again
You're in the city where nothing is forbidden
The ghost wanders abound while the chill of secrecy clouds
but you can't bear to leave the house
Brother, we'll count and bury the dead
Like two birds on fire who can be forgiven
I'll crash my plane into yours and we'll go down together
and hope we never go back
Too far gone
are we just too far gone
how I thought we could call the shots
now we're just too far gone
