I knew you once

When we were young

And summer days were still warm to the touch

And skies were blue, when I was with you

I called you brother once

Our father's sons, the both of us

Now staring down each other's blades

The rain washed words like "brother" away

I knew you once

Not anymore

And I can't say that I knew you before

When storm clouds came, you came clean

With betrayal in your eyes

An ice wall built between us where my father died

Staring down each others blades

The rain washed words like "brother" away

Fool of me to not have seen between your lies

And cruel of me to not have seen

How it tore you up inside

I knew you once when we were young

Until the day you took that fantasy away from us

Out of the blue I never knew you

Oh Little Brother, full of wiles

Sharp of tongue and twisted smiles

Staring down each others blades

The rain washed my brother away

Staring down each others blades

The rain washed words like "brother" away
