Brother, Are You Proud Of Me? (demo 3) (Patreon)

Every time I spread my wings

I think of you

Heaven ain't what it used to be

Maybe I'm the fool

Holding you

My amber moment in time

I still remember hitting the concrete

When the earth was mine

Please don't laugh

Please don't look at me that way

Oh ego, mine empty promises

Could I know your true gaze?

Betwixt, ablaze and grounded

Lay to rest the veins I bleed

To crucify the angel

That you hoped of me

—

Brother, are you proud of me?

I think I'm unfolding

Space and time between my eyes

No tears for beholding

The weight of tomorrow

Shatters our crystal ball

How could I not look back

From the mess of it all

—

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

From all those miles away

I know it's been so hard

Lost my faith in a flame in the dark

Maybe I could be the parasite

In the valley of paradise

Brother, are you proud of me?

I think I'm unfolding

Space and time between my eyes

No tears for beholding

The weight of tomorrow

Shatters our crystal ball

How could I not look back

From the mess of it all

Brother

Are you proud of me?

Holding warships off the path

To victory

Brother

to Sister

Could you take me in again?

Like when you saved me

Can you hear me

From all those miles away?
