[01:40.40]My brother's blood boils in my arms
[01:44.73]It balls my fingers into fists
[01:48.73]It bubbles, blisters, burns my palms
[01:52.68]It floods with fury, fights and fits
[01:56.70]It's got the good guy in me hiding
[02:00.68]It kicks my humble heart around
[02:04.63]It's got me fiending for the fire
[02:08.75]That could finish off this town.
[02:12.14]Oh it's got me going ...
[03:00.74]My brother's blood on a cherry tree
[03:05.06]It stains the bark from branch to root
[03:09.09]It puddles thick with pits and leaves
[03:13.11]It strains the sweetness from the fruit
[03:17.15]It's got me looking for communion
[03:21.05]A hiding point off underground
[03:25.03]An open plot I could climb into
[03:28.89]An lightening promise in my mouth
[03:32.95]A blackout oath I swore and meant
[03:36.92]But couldn't conjure up again
[03:40.78]I don't know one thing about my brother's blood
[03:48.71]I don't know one thing about my brother's blood
[03:58.01]
[05:14.43]My brother's blood
[05:16.24]In my dirty lungs
[05:18.07]In my crooked mouth
[05:19.93]On my swollen tongue
[05:21.86]On my father's gun
[05:23.85]In each stranger's face
[05:25.79]Across the bluebird sky
[05:27.82]On each hand I shake
[05:29.74]Night after night
[05:31.76]Each chuckled prayer
[05:33.69]Such sweet relief
[05:35.62]Fists full of hair
[05:37.73]With each desperate drive for elusive peace
[05:41.26]With every endless night
[05:43.17]With each wasted week
[05:45.16]All that dialogue doublin' back on me
[05:49.13]All that tangled talk
[05:50.96]All my growling need
[05:53.06]It's my brother's back
[05:54.75]It's my father's arms
[05:56.73]It's every twisted fact
[05:58.66]In my sorry heart
[06:00.56]My sorry heart my sorry heart
[06:05.62]
[06:46.74]I spit and scream what's done is done
[06:50.33]Go make your peace with everyone
[06:54.36]They don't need to know about my brother's blood
[07:01.00]No they don't need to know about my brother's blood
