lyrics
Brothers (Radio Version)
The awkward silence does it’s work
The woundedness that’s birthed
From a cut left so long ago
Can we bear it
Can we bear it with a hope
I cannot see your eyes
Or the way they trace the lines
Of the scars you left with your own hands
Can we bear it
Can we bear it with a hope
We know your name
So we say it out loud
Oh brother, I have been where you are now
Tell your story, all your painful in’s and out’s
There is healing in the telling
Let me show you where I’ve been
Oh brother,
Oh brother, I have been where you are now
And the blood’s still on my hands
The betrayal, where it lands
In the ones I love so desperately
Can we bear it
Can we bear it with a hope
You know my name
Please say it loud
The shame runs deep
And it’s taking me
To places I don’t wanna be
It’s killing me
Oh it’s killing me
The shame runs deep
And it’s making you
Do the things you don’t want to
It’s killing you
Oh it’s killing you
Oh brother, the monsters we’ve become
All the things we’ve said and everything
we’ve done
there healing in the telling
Keep holding on, it’s true
Oh brother,
Oh brother,
Oh brother, I am standing here with you
