Letter to my Brother


It seems like just yesterday you were here

I can still hear your voice in my ear

I cant believe its been another year

I've cried so much ive ran out of tears

Drown my sorrow with beer

Hoping for the day we meet again is near

Filled with so much sadness and fear

I see you when i look in the mirror

But then you disappear

I wish i could feel your touch

Your the only person in my life I'll ever trust 

But since you went away 

I cry everyday

I could only imagine what you would say

And where you would be today

Why does it have to be this way

How do i ease this pain 

I can no longer tame 

My life without you will never be the same

God is who i used to blame

My view on that changed

I remeber when we used to play 

I remeber back in the day

But then it fades

And im left in a state of hate

Curse this cruel fate

My brother was a saint

I try to remeber your face but its faint

I try my hardest but i just cant

Why couldnt it have been me

Sorrow deeper then the sea

Sadness no one can see

I guess this is how things got to be
