My brother killed himself Gassed sat in a car I ran to try and get to him But it was oh so far He died alone and angry I never knew why It still hurts to this day It still can make me cry He could have spoken to me He could have said it all All he did was connect a pipe And give me one last call Brother, I am dying and I am not scared Did he not understand that everybody cared
I held his coffin up high And walked with tear filled eyes I’m sorry that I failed you, Paul, I never heard your cries Years have passed but the pain is strong Memories come flooding back Like a long forgotten song
