Alan G. - Letters lyrics

BILLY: Dear Tom, It's your Little Bro Billy Just wrote to say I miss you so And Tom, it's just a little bit silly But I've run away, run far from home The whole world just bullies me I got hate up to my knees And it seems my dream is startin' to fade Please write to your Little Bro Billy I'm here all alone - and I'm afraid TOM: Dear Billy, It's your Big Bro Thomas Hello from halfway 'cross the earth Like you, I'm keepin' our promise To stand up for ways that all have worth And I know it don't seem fair BILLY: Not sure why I did this That your brother just ain't there BILLY: I'm still just a kid But I understand you're tryin' to be true Listen up, my Little Bro Billy There're some things we all just gotta do BILLY/TOM: There's one that you find BILLY: Knows what to say when the world has kicked you down BILLY/TOM: There's one you leave behind TOM: That you always worry 'bout a ton BILLY/TOM: My brother's always been that one BILLY: Dear Tom, we're livin' in fear now TOM: These folks don't feel safe here BILLY: I'm hit all the time though I still pray TOM: There ain't any hope here BILLY: And life - is just pain and tears now TOM: The people here hurt too BILLY: I cry all the time cuz you're away TOM: They cry for their sons, the ones about your age BILLY: Cla**mates' words cut like a knife TOM: Boys here hope to have a life BILLY: All their hate makes me so mad TOM: Don't you see... We got much more to do, my Little Bro Billy Now get along home and wait for me BILLY/TOM: There's one that you know TOM: That you try to change the whole world for BILLY/TOM: There's one who will show BILLY: The way back home when life has made you run BILLY/TOM: My brother's always been that one BILLY: Dear Tom, It's your Little Bro Billy Just wrote to say thanks, I'm heading home
