Once Were Brothers

(álbum: All Souls Hill - 2022)

When the light went out I carried on
I left my brothers and now they're gone
When the light went out, though I found my way
Out of the darkness, there was a price to pay

Once were brothers, brothers no more
Our faith in each other died in the war
There'll be no revival, there'll be no encore
Once were brothers, brothers no more

When the curtain came down I let go the past
I broke new ground, left what couldn't last
When the curtain came down on the final act
I paid the price for never going back

Once were brothers, brothers no more
Our faith in each other died in the war
There'll be no revival, there'll be no encore
Once were brothers, brothers no more

We already duked it out between the north and south
When I heard the shout coming out of your mouth
But we stood together 'cause we were kin
And when the band played Dixie we came marching in

Now the bleachers are empty, the voices are still
The stage is deserted and the house on the hill
With prospects commanding that we once gazed upon
And the last man standing when all the others are gone

Once were brothers, brothers no more
Our faith in each other died in the war
There'll be no revival, there'll be no encore
Once were brothers, brothers no more

There'll be no revival, no velvet encore
Once were brothers, brothers no more
Once were brothers, brothers no more
