Brotherhood

You had your work clothes on
And your back to the wall
How could I doubt your claims?

Red cars and sound systems
Late night recommendations
I thought these bonds would remain

Here we are, older and further away
If you called me this moment, what would we find to say?

Oh, it seems I’m growing wise but boring
Tired and lonely
And I want to know 
Is this normal?

No one promised this would last
The scatter caught me off my guard
And I’ll never get it back

I used to pine for what I have
Not knowing the wealth on which I stood
Now I yearn for brotherhood

Oh, it seems I’m growing wise but boring
Tired and lonely
And I want to know 
Is this normal?
