Little brother

Why are you thinking again, little brother?
When you know there's a story for every wrong
But I won't be around in the morning
Can only pray there's no harm in me moving on
To my trials in your unknown

Now there's a legion of wolves in the forest
And what might have been lost it is there I know
And the crazy old names loving owners
I feel useless when I have to face alone
All your trials in my unknown

And if you could just walk home by
With signs just flying around
And if this storm was just the motion
Of your kid just trying out?
If we could only lose these miles

Now there's a terrible light on the shade
Where you threw your insanities on a wall
Well, I can see where the dark hits the summer
I said I believe you forever, but you said don't
It's a child for all that grows

And if you could just walk home by
With signs just flying around
And if this storm was just the motion
Of your kid just trying out?
If we could only lose these miles

Why are you drinking again, little brother?
When your rambling's the hard part of loving you
You say the creek and the fogs wanna drown you
But there are deeper wells where we going to
There's no drought in this unknown

And if you could just walk home by
With signs just flying around
And if this storm was just the motion
Of your kid just trying out?
If we could only lose these miles

And when your memory is lost on a hillside
And the wind takes you further and forward now
Your world is a kite in the weather
Gently tied to your hand that is pointing out
There's a sky in this unknown

And if you could just walk home by
With signs just flying around
And if this storm was just the motion
Of your kid just trying out?
If we could only lose these miles
