Brother in the Wind
Eternal Journeys: High on Fire's Revelations in 'Brother in the Wind'
Lyrics
The lot is cast, mysteries vast
The course is set, and there are profound mysteries
Alive our eyes as conscience dies
Our awareness is alive, but our moral sense is fading
As he runs he's taken from the world
As one moves forward, they are removed from the worldly concerns
We know the dealers' blow
We are aware of the destructive influence of drug dealers
Embrace our faith without a trace
We accept our beliefs without leaving a mark
Wonder takes our earthly days
Curiosity defines our earthly existence
Not forget just leave behind
We don't forget, but we choose to move forward
The prison will not always bind
The constraints of prison won't last forever
And if the sun never shined on us
Even if the sun never shines on us
The night time has fruit of the vine
Nighttime brings its own pleasures
Come with me now and just lie to me
Come with me, let's escape reality
Tonight we'll pretend we're alive
Tonight, let's pretend we are truly alive
Our brother's wind flows on and on
The influence or legacy of our brother continues indefinitely
Bones and flesh lives that rest
Bones and flesh house lives at rest
Holy blood the spirit's quest
Divine blood fuels the spiritual journey
Beauty ties the end's disguise
Beauty masks the true nature of endings
A somber dirge cause angels die
A mournful song because even angels meet their end
A sky of gray the coffins lay
Under a gray sky, coffins are laid to rest
The sun will not come another day
The sun won't shine again
Not forget just leave behind
We don't forget, but we choose to move forward
The prison will not always bind
The constraints of prison won't last forever
And if the sun never shined on us
Even if the sun never shines on us
The night time has fruit of the vine
Nighttime brings its own pleasures
Come with me now and just lie to me
Come with me, let's escape reality
Tonight we'll pretend we're alive
Tonight, let's pretend we are truly alive
Our brother's wind flows on and on
The influence or legacy of our brother continues indefinitely
Where have I wandered my father
Where have I strayed, my father?
Led like a lamb to my slaughter
Led like a lamb to my own demise
Truth has awakened the dreamer
Truth has disrupted the dreamer's illusions
Hand I the keys to the keeper
I entrust the keys to the keeper
