Bitter blood on the blood-stained highway We're brothers in arms 'til we get it right You're gonna want it your way It's gonna be done now Don't take it too far, gonna get it right Move on from the past Agree to disagree Every sorrow has it's source And your conscience isn't free In the dog days of Summer On another sober September This was meant for you Am I not my brother's keeper? All is what it seems to be I'm A strong rival A bitter enemy Best friend Till the end The man you wish to be They pray for villains When their heroes let them down They pray for villains When their heroes let them down Let them down! The ties that bind he clock that winds As the oceans meet the sky On the hour of my death Will you be standing by Every sorrow has it's source And your conscience isn't free In the dog days of Summer On another sober September This was meant for you Am I not my brother's keeper? All is what it seems to be I'm A strong rival A bitter enemy Best friend Till the end The man you wish to be They pray for villains When their heroes let them down They pray for villains When their heroes let them down Let them down! Bless the broken road As we limp back home You get off on the sound Of everything coming down, so down Walk down the broken road!
