Brother
Vraell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Open your eyes
I'm calling you
From where? Buried deep inside
I'll let it through

Oh, brother, brother
Come down
Sit a while here with me
Oh, you know I won't leave you be

Throw me the keys
To your only door
Been out for a while, you see
I don't know what for

Oh, brother, brother
You found burdens you could not keep
I know
But I'll take them off your heavy knees

So stay a while
Won't you stay a while?
Well, these broken bloody wings are made to shelter you and I
So stay a while
Won't you stay a while?
Oh, we'll never get to cast our stones and leave it all behind
So stay a while
Won't you stay a while?
Well, these broken bloody wings are made to shelter you and I
So stay a while
Won't you stay a while?
Oh, we'll never get to cast our stones and leave it all behind

Open your eyes
I'm calling you




Please, just open your eyes
I'm calling you
