Breaking Halos

Brothers of mine, do you remember

When we were young and times were hard?

We didn't have much in our pockets,

But we carried hope inside our hearts.

We weren't always close together,

We didn't always see eye to eye,

But when one of us was hurting,

Somehow the others stood nearby.

Through every storm, through every fight,

Through all those long and restless nights,

We may have walked our separate roads,

But we're still brothers in our souls.

So brothers, let's begin again,

Put down the anger,

forgive the pain. We've lost enough years to yesterday,

Let's not let tomorrow slip away.

We can't go back and change what's been,

But we can choose where this story ends.

Before another year is gone,

Let's find our way back home.

Brothers of mine,

take my hand... It's time to begin again.

Life took us down different highways,

And pride built walls along the way.

A phone stopped ringing,

doors stopped opening, And words we needed stayed unsaid.

Now pictures hold the conversations

That we should've had face to face.

And sometimes I wonder how brothers

Can feel so close,

yet so far away.

But underneath the hurt and years,

Under the anger, under the tears,

There's still a bond we cannot hide,

The same old blood still runs inside.

So brothers, let's begin again,

Put down the anger,

forgive the pain. We've lost enough years to yesterday,

Let's not let tomorrow slip away.

We can't go back and change what's been,

But we can choose where this story ends.

Before another year is gone,

Let's find our way back home.

Brothers of mine, take my hand...

It's time to begin again.

I don't need you to say I was right.

You don't need me to say you were wrong.

Maybe healing isn't forgetting,

Maybe healing is simply moving on.

Because one day we'll look around

And one chair will be empty there.

And we'll wish for one more conversation,

One more laugh, one more prayer.

So why wait until tomorrow

To say what we can say tonight?

I forgive you.

Please forgive me.

Whatever happened...

You're still my family.

BROTHERS, LET'S BEGIN AGAIN!

Let the past be where the past has been.

We've carried those wounds long enough,

It's time to choose forgiveness and love.

Let every wall between us fall,

Because brothers don't have to agree on it all.

We only need to remember when The world knocked us down...

We lifted each other again.

And if there's still a road back home,

None of us should walk alone.

Brothers of mine, while we still can...

Let's begin again.

No more years

lost to yesterday, No more words we're afraid to say.

Whatever happened, wherever we've been...

You're my brother. I'm your brother.

Let's begin again.
