Little Brother

Never choose a window over open doors
you never know how far you’ll fall
never sew seed
in the middle of winter
never eat a wind fall apple
if one happens upon your way
cause what’s easy for you
is easy for him
Never leave a penny in a broken glass
Because a penny is a poor mans will
and the blood on his hands
will stain you still
Never teach a Lion that it’s something it’s not
it’s only gonna last so long
Because a Lions heart
is always a Lions
Oh little brother
the things that i have seen
well i hope you twain will never meet
and the grass is always green
Oh little brother
It doesn’t all seem real
my friends are dying in my arms
I hope you never find out, just how that feels
Never fall in love on a second date
Because your heart’s too quick and your brain’s too late
Never Tear a doc leaf
that you don’t need
never take a rifle that you haven’t made
the fights not yours and it’s not your spade
to dig with
get out of that hole
Oh little brother
the things that i have seen
well i hope you twain will never meet
and the grass is always green
Oh little brother
It doesn’t all seem real
my friends are dying in my arms
I hope you never find out, just how that feels
Oh little brother
i can only say so much
you’ll have to find your own way
but i hope you keep in touch
