lyrics

i thought you were a ghost, breaking bread
like a newly formed opinion, growing legs
but you're an open wound, absolved of its shape
like a long-awaited feast without the taste

everything you touch turns to gold
but you hide it in a place that no one goes
you're a broken lock behind a hidden door
like keeping out the fire with wooden boards

sticking out your chest, you called it safe
hanging by a thread, you pulled and swayed
you're a higher bid with debts you'll never pay
like whiskey creeping toward an open flame

everything you loved has gone away
the casualty of pride and hope decayed
like the cry the crowning dusk extends to day
you're the one i always loved but couldn't save

creeping toward the end, you hang your head
breaking at the knee, you clench your fist
lifting up your arm to block the light
that gleaming picks you up and pulls you in

i thought you were my brother then
i thought you were my brother then
i called you my brother then
and i'll call you my brother then
