Dear Brother

from Ribbons - The LP by Elikah

/

lyrics

So tell me a story, like you used to
We would curl up in bed
Beneath the patchwork covers
We're best of friends, we're brothers
Plans mapped on our etch-a-sketch
To take on this city, and marry girls so pretty
That our friends would all grow green.

Where did we?
Where did we, go so wrong?

Do you remember when dad left?
And crying took all my breath.
You were brave as you could be.
But now words inch our distance,
And we only drink resistance.
Oh those sullen mistakes.

Where did we?
Where did we, go so wrong?

Silence lines the walls we're in
I'm stubborn feel my sting.
Oh brother where are we?
Don't let this grow older.
