Lyrics

Mmmm
Yeah
Too close
We were just too close

Three rooms four souls no space to breathe
Mama's in the kitchen trying not to grieve
Paper walls silence falls like lead
Living in the shadow of the words unsaid
Twenty something living like caged birds
Choking on the anger lost for words

I smell the demons on your breath
Jack Daniels dancing with the death
Of a love you lost she cut you deep
You drink the poison just to sleep

Sleeping with a stranger in my brother's bed
Terrified of the chaos in your head
You fought a ghost but you hit my face
I was the punching bag for her embrace

Oh the whiskey burned then it made you turn
I watched the fire in your spirit burn
Crying in your sleep calling out her name
Falling in a hole feeding on the flame
Sun comes up and the sadness turns to rage
A wounded animal trapped inside a cage
Walk on eggshells blood on my lip
Watching the bond of brotherhood slip

Cologne lights flickering through the glass
Waiting for this heavy storm to pass
The loudest silence they ever heard
We broke their hearts without a word

Sleeping with a stranger in my brother's bed
Terrified of the chaos in your head
You fought a ghost but you hit my face
I was the punching bag for her embrace

It wasn't me you hated
It was the pain
I forgive you now
I forgive us

Close close close
