Lyrics
Oh sister, I am down on my knees
My head is spinning 'round
I took a punch, somebody beat me real bad
Who was that man, and where's he gone?
Oh my brother, I am down on my knees
You're with me here on the ground
When we were kids, you'd trip, you fall on me
But would you kick me when I was down?
I wanna hit somebody
But I can't see clear for the blood in my eyes
I wanna hurt somebody
But I can't see clear for the blood in my eyes
Oh oh, my brother, did you see just where
The road we rode had turned so wrong?
I check the rearview mirror, my friend
And just one thing's clear, you're gone
You went your way, I went mine
Now I, I walk along, alone
Maybe, my brother, you see why
But my bloody eyes just don't
I wanna hate somebody
But I can't see clear for the blood in my eyes
I wanna hurt somebody
But I can't see clear for the blood in my eyes
I wanna hate somebody
But I can't see clear for the blood in my eyes
Wanna forgive somebody
But I can't see clear for the blood in my eyes
Would you come back and wipe my face
And wash the blood away?
Help me see you through clear eyes
Like when we had brighter days
Help me see you through clear eyes
Like when we had brighter days
