lyrics

Not Like a Brother
Written by Tracy McNeil ©2019

Seasons change and I’m miles away
Dreaming of a place I’ve never been
I know that you could reach me, down on the bottom
But you’re standing on the outside just looking in

Surrounded by darkness and hungry eyes
All wanting something I can’t even see
I’m leaning on the doorway of the open wide
But nothing's really moving inside of me

Strike me down
Make me stay
Can’t feel the thunder in my heart these days
You be the lightning running through my veins
I wanna feel you
I wanna feel you, wanna know you, not like a brother

Love is locked up in the tower
I’m still waiting on the one with a key
It was swallowed in my youth trying to burry the truth
Now I’m chasing after anything to get free

Wake me from this slumber tell it to me real
Drive me into madness for a love time won’t steal
I want a heart that cracks as the room fills with light
Dancing in the shadows of the moon across the night
Dancing in the shadows of the moon

Strike me down
Make me stay
Can’t feel the thunder in my heart these days
You be the lightning running through my veins
I wanna feel you
I wanna feel you, wanna know you, not like a brother


We were young, moving at the speed of light
Wild-hearts through the backstreets in the night
I’m lying here, still on the ground
And no constellation of the human heart can be found
No constellation of the human heart can be found
No constellation of the human heart

Strike me down
Make me stay
Can’t feel the thunder in my heart these days
You be the lightning running through my veins
I wanna feel you
I wanna feel you, wanna know you, not like a brother
I wanna feel you, wanna know you, not like a brother
Not like a brother, not like a brother, not like a brother
