Oh brother of mine

It's been a long long time

Since I've seen my face in your eyes

Oh brother, I've returned

To my burn scars of birth

Charcoal and iron brought me back

And I left you alone

In a house, not a home

And I watched the burning grow

As my hair filled with gray

From the ashes that fell

The mountains I knew so well

Burned with Hellfire in the blue light of midnight

Brother, I watched the sky burn

And all I learned was

Smoke fills the lungs like a disease

Oh brother, I see

You burn like me

The singes on our skin like a brand

Oh brother, I confess

There is little of me left

That could care about dousing the wildfire

And I left you alone

In a house, not a home

And I watched the burning grow

As my hair filled with gray

From the ashes that fell

The mountains I knew so well

Burned with Hellfire in the blue light of midnight

Brother I watched the sky burn

And all I learned was

Smoke fills the lungs like a disease

Oh brother, did you know

You could just strike a match

Hear him scream my name one last time

Oh brother, I am home

In the fires of our youth

I could care less if it hurts you anymore

And I left you alone

In a house, not a home

And I watched the burning grow

As my hair filled with gray

From the ashes that fell

The mountains I knew so well

Burned with Hellfire in the blue light of midnight

Brother I watched the sky burn

And all I learned was

Smoke fills the lungs like a disease
