Convictions - Brother's Blood lyrics

Dear brother, It k**s me to keep this inside It k**s me. It k**s me to separate from you Don't always a**ume the worst of me If love is an extension of my own selfishness, then I viewed you like a personal golden crown They say family comes first, yet I've left you to the fields To perish I know I can't save you I can't do this anymore We are an endless war Dear brother, I can't save you Can't change your mind after all we've been through All I ever wanted was to save your soul Dear brother, what have we come to? Forgive me now I just have to tell you This love comes from the most sincere of places Was it from mother's disconnection or the family's divorce? I have no answers Do you think they feel remorse? Something's gotta give Something's gotta change your mind God, save my brothers soul. Show me a way to make him whole Don't leave him behind, this brother of mine I know I can't save you I can't do this anymore We are an endless war Dear brother, I can't save you Can't change your mind after all we've been through All I ever wanted was to save your soul Dear brother, what have we come to? Forgive me now I just have to tell you This love comes from the most sincere of places Brother, how could there be a God who watches his children burn? (italic) I tried to believe but my eyes can't see the one you follow so damn blindly. (italic) Forgive my wayward actions. These words come from concern From dust we came and dust we return. (italic) I know there's more to life. Won't you take a look around Will we burn in hell or simply rot in the ground? (italic) We are both one in the same despite our belief My soul is safer without these false beliefs. (italic) Time heals all wounds. We are bound by blood Brother, I'll carry your cross for you until my bones break You said yourself, “It's never too late to change.”
