Brother Tongue Songtext
von Ben Abraham

Aren′t all the lights in the night sky pretty?
Aren't we so small in this tiny city?
Aren′t we absurd, thinking gestures and words might explain us?
We are piles of dust articulating chaos

And maybe in the sand
We find a steady hand

Talk to me in brother tongue
Tell me where this nature from
Show me how this river run
Teach me how to sing my song
The lust and the long
The lust and the long


How is it that I can feel you breathing?
Head on your chest where your heart is beating
The pieces assemble, but don't complete us
And whole galaxies live in the spaces between us

Pour me out like sand
Until we start again

Talk to me in brother tongue
Tell me where this nature from
Show me how this river run
Teach me how to sing this song
The lust and the long
The lust and the long

Talk to me in brother tongue
Tell me where this nature from
Show me how this river run
Teach me how to sing my song
The lust and the long
The lust and the long
