I was there and I saw you, saw you, crossing the line and look the other way
Back when the faithful found you face down in the mud, you had hell to pay
I guess the world just beat you up, pushed you aside but it was your choice
But now you're running back, running back, tapping your toes to the sound of its voice
Instead you run away, instead you run away
Brother, brother, can't you see?
The path that you've chosen will lead you to misery
Brother, brother, emergency
The road that you're bound on will lead you to misery
You say you're free and you do what you want, push love aside as you follow the pun
Your addictions ruling you, peace not the choice you even choose
You cast the blame on the world outside, yet you're the one who chose to hide
You're always free to take my hand
Before you run you gotta learn to stand
Instead you run away, instead you run away
Brother, brother, can't you see?
The path that you've chosen will lead you to misery
Brother, brother, emergency
The road that you're bound on will lead you to misery
Brother, brother, why can't you understand?
The hand that you've been dealt is how they measure man
It's how you play your cards only when you are able
Keep your head high when you're forced to leave the table
Brother, brother, can't you see?
The path that you've chosen will lead you to misery
Brother, brother, emergency
The road that you're bound on will lead you to misery
