about

Written and recorded July, 2013.

lyrics

I hit the brakes and I swerve to the right
I lose control and then it smashes the side
My mind is blank and on the passenger’s side
My love is gonna feel it
Brother’s gonna feel it
But I cannot feel anything
My leg just buckles beneath me
And all the blood is only icing
Cause I cannot believe it

And I sat in the dirt
Wait for help
Hold your head up in my hand
And I sang you the song that was playing in the stereo when we crashed
No, I will never leave your side
Or stop calling out your name
You’re my brother, you’re my teacher, my best friend

Ambulance and airplanes
They try to keep us separate
And plug us into the machines
Which make us less than human
Take away the union
But they cannot keep us apart
As long as we’ve got beating hearts
And we will wait until after dark
To be the same person

You’re on crutches
I am sleeping
In a coma till my beard grows to my knees
I’ve never really had to try to carry out your name
You’re my blood and the transmission lives in me
