This Time

Just relax your mind my friend

We've many breaths until the end

The darkest days have not been kind

The pain of loss can make you blind

Oh sometimes

Even if unspoken everyone's a little broken

If you read between the lines

See through the blinds

Oh to the other side

I should of been there when you couldn't stand

I did not understand

Now I'm a better man

This time

Not gonna let the clouds push me away no more

You'll be my brother when we're old and gray I know

Singin' songs until the rise of early morn

Oh this I know

Your mind went into battle and our friendship was a prisoner of war

Your broken pieces all over the floor

You had to close the door from the storm

Years spent waiting for the storm to fade

Reminded of mistakes I'd made

From every side oh even weaponized

I cried

I should of been there when you couldn't stand

I did not understand

But I'm a better man

This time

Not gonna let the clouds push me away no more

You'll be my brother when we're old and gray I know it

Singin' songs until the rise of the early morn

Oh this time

Not gonna let the rain fall down on you no more

I'll be your shelter from the storm

Oh this I know
