about
This is a song about coming to terms with the death of my brother, and trying to reach out with my music for people that might be on the edge in my own clumsy way.
lyrics
LYRICS:
This song is written for my brother, who took his life last year.
It's written for me, and my mother, and everyone else he left behind.
But most importantly, this song is written for you, and the people that care about you.
So that sometime, when things are bad, you think of this song, and the people that love you.
And if you can't think of anyone, know that this song loves you, even if it's never met you.
And though it's unbelievably hard, you come back to us.
You were one, just one of many
Feel you can't go on, nothing is anything
Take this song, wrap it round your throat
A scarf against the cold, a puffy winter coat
And know, that I, am thinking of you
And know that I, am thinking of you
It all broke down, it split to pieces
And I know you tried, tried to keep it up
On your shoulders, I'll hold it if you ask me and
even when you fail, remember, you're failing up
And know, that I, I am thinking of you
And know that I, I am thinking of you
When the shame's too much, for you to face it
The pain's too rough, for you to place it down
on the ground, let's make it warm in here
We'll take your pain and burn it up
I built a fire in this verse here just for you,
It's just for you
And you know it's hard to find
All the ones you'll leave behind
When it's so dark, and hard to see
But even if there's no one there
There's always some one who cares
Brother Uncle or a son
Mother Aunt all love someone
And even if you think you're all alone
Then make this song your home
And even if you think you're all alone
Please make this song your home
And know that I, I am thinking of you
Know that I, am thinking of you.
