You were like a brother to me
A beautiful breathing blessing who I was lucky to meet
How quick life changes, it's getting tougher for me
I wish I was someone else, but there's no one other to be
They told me stories that I couldn't believe
You were going through it, said you wanted to leave
There wasn't a future that I ever perceived
Watching my big brother take his own life with ease
I wish you called, I wish you thought of me
Cause now I'm staring at your pictures, bro it tortures me
I can't get through this pain, it keeps haunting me
It's hard to see your face, my eyes are watery
Maybe I'm selfish cause I wanted you here
And if I could go back, I'd make you promise you hear?
That we'd see each other more, that we would always be near
You could call me any time and I would always appear
The clouds are closing in, now it's raining out tears
The memories not enough, because my mind is never clear
Depressions getting rough, so I don't know which way to steer
Losing track of time, it's shifting up another gear
And I'm... still thinking of my big brother
This is a message of love, from your kid brother
And I'm... still thinking of my big brother
This is a message of love, from your kid brother
Family and friends building bridges, you brought us together
To share our memories, of when we were together
A butterfly lands in the middle of the room
We cry and smile, because we know that it was you
