Guided by Voices
Broken Brothers
[Verse 1]
Straight up to the drama and the test
Tried to reach us, searching out from east to west
Hold back every secret in the dust
All directions looking out for both of us

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And collecting steam
All busting out
Like broken street pipes
Like imitation skin

[Chorus 1]
Together you and me, the elbow and the knee
Blasted but it's easy to piece the sky together
Patch it up again

[Verse 2]
Paid up, having never felt concern
Vow to leave us with no promise to return
Straight up from a world of window bars
Got so far out that they lost the sun and stars

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And they'll cup our heads
Sideways to learn
To reach out for the heaven
That sits between the eyes
[Chorus]
Burns will pull back, opens up the gate
And the devil may care to bring up back together
Patch it up again
Patch it up again
Patch it up again
Patch it up again
Patch it up again
Patch it up again
Patch it up again
