hey, brother(Arnold Melleby, 01.28.2018


sidetracked and misspelled
given a story hard to tell
and too hard to sell
cought up in the darkest downward spiral
at the end
the outcome gave itself

singing on an endless song
only problem is
the chorus never comes
and the verses never end
when the fat lady finally sings
she has no message to send

hey, brother
where are you
hey, brother
where did you go

I came looking
but you were nowhere to be found
if you had just left a door
that I could knock on
it would have made things easier
for me
but I guess things were a lot worse
for you

hey, brother
where are you
hey, brother
where did you go
a life given
instead he chose to
give his away
to death
hey, brother
where are you
hey, brother
where did you go

sidetracked and misspelled
given a story hard to tell
and too hard to sell
cought up in the darkest downward spiral
at the end
the outcome gave itself

hey, brother
where did you go
