How  can I repay  you brother  mine?
How  can I expect  you to  forgive?
Clinging  to the past  I shed  our blood,
 and shattered  your chance to live.
Though  I knew the laws  I paid  no heed.
 How can I return  your wasted  breath?
What  I did not know  has cost  you dear,
 For  there is no cure for death.
Beautiful  mother, soft  and sweet
Once  you were gone  we were not  complete.
Back  through the years  we reached  for you.
Alas  was not meant  to be
 And how  can I make amends,
 for all  that I took  from you?
 I lead  you with hopeless  dreams.
My  brother I was  a fool.
Don't  cry for the past  now brother  mine,
Neither  you nor I  are free  from blame.
Nothing  can erase  the things  we did,
 For the path  we took was the same.
Beautiful  mother, soft  and sweet
Once  you were gone  we were not  complete.
Back  through the years  we reached  for you.
Alas  was not meant  to be
 My dreams  made me  blind and mute,
 I longed  to return  to that time,
 I followed  without  a word.
My  brother the fault  is mine.
 So where  do we go  from here?
 And how  to forget  and forgive?
 What's gone  is forever lost.
 Now all  we can do  is live.
