Lyrics

Take me instead
Burn and rip away flesh and bone
You know best
You see me through those beautiful green eyes of yours
Will you please just come back home
Wherever that is
Slowly back off from the edge of your world
Keep your head up in the clouds
Beating away at yourself won’t last long
I can hold you up on my shoulders
I’m holding on
To your shoulders, please come back home
Cause we miss you the more we know
You won’t be here as we all grow older
Older

Lock me away
All that’s keeping me here is you
In my head
There lie the memories and times we spent
All those times you kept me safe
You never cared what people said
I was your brother anyway
So I held on
Cause I thought that you’d still be here
Now that I’m not a little kid and I can think
And tell you that, man
I wish that I could still give you a hug
And spend every moment like it could be the last
Cause I didn’t know what I had
Wish I would’ve known what I had
Guess you don’t know what you really have
Till it’s gone

You know best
You see me through those beautiful green eyes of yours
Will you please just come back home
If you hold my hand you won’t get lost
