How can I repay you, brother mine?
How can I expect you to forgive?
Clinging to the past I shed our blood,
And shattered your chance to live.

Though I knew the laws I paid no heed.
How can I return your wasted breath?
What I did not know has cost you dear,
For there is no cure for death.

Beautiful mother, soft and sweet
Once you were gone we were [bad word] 
Back through the years we reached for you.
Alas, twas not ment to be.
And how can I make amends,
for all that I took from you?
I led you with hopeless dreams.
My brother I was a fool.

Don't cry for the past now brother mine,
Neither you nor I are free from blame.
Nothing can erase the things we did,
For the path we took was the same.

Beautiful mother, soft and sweet
Once you were gone we were [bad word] 
Back through the years we reached for you.
Alas, twas not meant to be.
My dreams made me blind and mute,
I longed to return to that time,
I followed without a word.
My brother the fault is mine.

So where do we go from here?
And how to forget and forgive?
What's gone is forever lost.
Now all we can do is live.
