Brother, O Brother Lyrics

Got my lucky number from a million to one
Now I watch my belly grow, turning red in the sun
Thunderbolts and lightening getting hard to ignore
I'm turning in to stone
I need to find something more
Brother, O brother, no more can I pretend
How can we be family til we start being friends?
I've been running and searching, now I'm calling your name
Cos how can I sleep knowing I'm part of the shame?

Sitting in my play pen building castles in the sand
Dieing isn't hard when someone's holding your hand
Brother, O brother, no more can I pretend
How can we be family til we start being friends?
I've been running and searching, now I'm calling your name
Cos how can I sleep knowing I'm part of the shame?

Thunderbolts and lightening getting hard to ignore
Searching for our souls in the fog of war
Feel a little guilty?
Throw another bone
Surrounded by my own
I've never felt so alone
Brother, O brother, no more can I pretend
How can we be family til we start being friends?
I've been running and searching, now I'm calling your name
Cos how can I sleep knowing I'm part of the shame?
