about
«Brother» is a soul-searching song. A reflection upon growth and self-discovery. Felt the urge to write this song at the end of my tangled journey through therapy, to give voice to some new awarenesses. I wrote it during first lockdown (so far away, isn'it?), worked on it slowly, at a suspended time that didn't required any urgency. Now finally, after one year of waiting, «Brother» is ready to come (back) to life, with a new feeling of freedom.
lyrics
Brother,
I’ve searched all over for you
in the wrong hideouts
night after night, out there
where have you been hiding?
Brother,
thought I’d found you
his smile was so sincere
that I fell for it
where have you been hiding?
Brother
come out from the darkness
the sun heals everything
Brother
come out from the darkness
the sun heals everything
the sun heals everything.
Brother,
keep on seeking you
in the lines of my hands
as if you were just a reflection of me
as you’ve never been away
but deeper, deeper inside me
they told me I should look
and there I’m coming to
but please, please wait for me
Brother,
it might take a long, long time
but I promise you
soon I’ll understand
and set us free.
Free to live out of the darkness
the sun heals everything
free to live out of the darkness
the sun heals everything
the sun heals everything
everything, everything, everything
(brother out of the darkness
out of the darkness
stand in the sun).
