I travel up north burkina faso down there i met my brethren from long long ago
and he tried to tell me things that i really wanted to know
but my mind was filled with misdistress and pestilence, thats how it goes
funny how your mind can make you seek your brother men out
my mind was french fried and out
ya know i read in revelation
one who told ed about im still here cryin
cuz ill never forget the way that i lost my brother no ill
never forget the way that my brothers lost there fathers never forget the way
how ill cry like my mother if she lost me the same way, oh
in this world theres hurt to pay
and im not even sure when all this pestilence will end

I travel up north to alleviate my soul
funny how your brain slips and trips when your
so far from home
but your still in the same world which you should really try and get to know
a mind fogged with misdistress and depression only grows old
funny how your mind can make you seek your brother men out
my mind was french fried and out
ya know i read in revelation one who told ed about im still here cryin
cuz ill never forget way that i lost my brother no ill
never forget way that my brothers lost there fathers never forget way
how ill cry like my mother if she lost me the same way, oh
in this world theres hurt to pay
and im not even sure when all this pestilence will end
caught in the trenches of this life
theres an emptiness that brings life to all of those who got nothin
caught in the trenches of this life there is an emptiness that brings life
to all of those who lost everything.

Funny how your mind can make you seek your brother men out
my mind was french fried and out
ya know i read in revelation
one who told ed about im still here cryin
cuz ill never forget the way that i lost my brother no ill
never forget the way that my brothers lost there fathers never forget the way
how ill cry like my mother if she lost me the same way, oh
