Brother, my brother I watched you give so much away And I cried when you stop lookin' forward And started to stray Like an empty canvas hangin' on the wall You're not sure what to show them So you show them nothing at all You're supposed to be strong, supposed to be brave 'Cause that's the way someone I love should behave You're supposed to be you and not somebody else 'Cause I've always known more about you than myself It's hard facing the truth And embracing all the saints of my youth Heavenly sister There's nobody safe from your charms And all the hearts in your wake As lost as the babe in your arms You can line them up and knock them over One by one But you won't find your happiness In the warmth of a gun You're supposed to be patient, supposed to be true 'Cause that's what I've always expected of you You're supposed to be you and not somebody else 'Cause I've always known more about you than myself It's hard facing the truth And embracing all the saints of my youth Father, forgive me for some of the things that I've done And in turn I'll forgive you for losing the faith of a son Like a lonely beacon burning in the night I still know that you're out there Somewhere just out of sight You're supposed to be loving, courageous and wise 'Cause that's what I see when I look in your eyes You're supposed to be you and not anyone else 'Cause I trusted you more that I trusted myself It's hard facing the truth Hard facing the truth It's hard facing the truth And embracing all the saints of my youth
