about

This song is about navigating a friendship over time

lyrics

Brother, will you let me in?
Brother, will you lend a hand?
Lately I been living in
The shadowlands

And I know that we been out of touch
Maybe we don't talk as much
Brother, I been living rough
And I'm so messed up

Brother, please remind me what it means to be alive
Brother, stand beside me when the tide begins to rise
Brother, will you help me find the strength to carry on --- ?
Tell me that you never stopped singing our song ---

Remember feeling half-crazed?
Teenage tearaways
Wild in our glory days
Oh, the trouble that we raised

You 'n I, we were thick as thieves
Trying so hard to break free
Hanging on to our belief
By the skin of our teeth

Brother, please remind me what it means to be alive
Brother, stand beside me when the tide begins to rise
Brother, will you help me find the strength to carry on --- ?
Tell me that you never stopped singing our song ---

And when all our brighter days finally all fade away
At the end of the road, when it's time to come home - I'll be there
'cause I remember our song, and all that it was built on
I remember our song

So if ever we meet again
On the fields of Elysium
In a dream of Hyperion
Where we linger on

Everything's gon' work out fine
When I meet you down the line
Like brothers, you 'n I 'till the end of time
Like brothers, you 'n I 'till the end of time
