lyrics

goodbye brother david and goodbye my james-john
the poison that you drank from is blood that i belong to
and stars keep on exploding a million miles away
and bodies break and die and feed the living part of me

two northwest boys are born in riverbeds and tanglewood trees
summer jobs, pretty girls, and baseball, and evenings cheap
the older boy was born to play the music, born to really see
his brother listened to the pictures, and told me what they mean

and one by one we killed the new year, we drank the wine glass dry
fallin down, and tryin to get back on the ceiling,
where the world’s not black and white
yellin at the rainclouds that the earth is still as pretty as the sky
i don’t remember who was wrong, i can’t remember right

goodbye brother david and goodbye my james-john
the poison that you drank from is blood that i belong to
and stars keep on exploding a million miles away
and bodies break and die and heal the living part
of everyone i overlooked and everything i didn’t say

remember me

and every time i think i’m getting better, i’m slain
