[Intro: Soft piano, ambient guitar] [Verse 1] I couldn't believe The things you just said The ease in how you said them To think that my brother Could spit on me that way Like our shared memories Burnt to ashes in a single day [Pre-Chorus] long ago we met down in the darkness At the crossroads of our lives My bad decisions caught up with me You helped me find the light [Chorus] Time can change everything But I thought we were the same Painted faces running Crying in the rain Time has moved on And I guess we did too You might still be my brother Just not the one I knew If I see you again I'll look you in the eye But for the words you spoke today Inside, a piece of me died [Verse 2] You were always the better friend Selfless in your fight A hand reached out from the edge I knew I could hold tight I know you never meant For it to sound like that A noose fits every neck Once tied [Chorus] Time can change everything But I thought we were the same Painted faces running Crying in the rain Time has moved on And I guess we did too You might still be my brother Just not the one I knew If I see you again I'll look you in the eye But for the words you spoke today Inside, a piece of me died [Bridge] If I keep this silent It doesn't only protect you It keeps your image intact For if the others only knew You didn't mean to frame it In a light of hate and spite But if I told anyone else I know it won't be alright [Outro] This isn't goodbye It's just where this ends I'll carry what's left And remember who you've been But if this road should lead us here again The line gets cut No goodbye Just... the end
