Where your favorite blogs come alive
Knock me down between the eyes,
Eyes of man that crust with gunpowder and long gone cigarette smoke,
Knock me down,
I deserve it,
Little brother o' mine
Let me earn it.
Knock on the door,
Over lily of valleys,
Hung over the frame
Of what once was two,
three against the world,
And you used to mean the world to me,
I don't think that's ever changed,
Second son o' mine, brother o' mine,
Let me go, I'd die a second time
Let me go,
I need to go.
You don't need to earn an apology from me,
Just that you are asking for an apology,
From a coward, that is me,
I need you to stay,
(I want you to go away)
Just like the old days,
(I've come back to my old ways)
With you by my side,
and I by yours,
'You need to let them heal without you'
So I will let you heal without me,
I'd die a second time to make everyone happy,
Except I'd die only in others eyes,
I'd be a wandering man, a breathing ghost,
A husk of flesh and bone
and once long ago flags and never-sung-again songs,
If I am the problem,
then I will remove myself from the equation,
Give you a quick solution,
I've returned to my roots,
my roots underground,
Brother o' mine, would you wish to come around?
