For a Brother lyrics

by

David Byrne


[Verse 1]
Can't rise from the bottom
Time flies when ya got it
Your time has receded
Wasted
Could and should have been
And didn't

[Chorus]
I've given up my hand for a brother
I've given up a hand for free
I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned
But you set yourself free

[Verse 2]
Nosedive
Crash to the bottom
Angel
Your wing was always broken
Fought for rights of the prophets
Not for the spirit of your daughters
Didn't

[Chorus]
I've given up my hand for a brother
I've given up a hand for free
I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned
But you set yourself free
[Bridge]
Walk slowly
Seems like time stopped
Seems like I'm slow dancing
But I'm flying
Where do I go?
The home I know is closed
I'm free
Free, yeah
I'm free
Free, yeah
Free, free, yeah

[Chorus]
Given up my hand for a brother
Given up a hand for free
I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned
But you set yourself free
Bitten off my hand for the stuff, and
Livin' off the sh*t you steal
You perished for religious and forgotten
Daughters that you couldn't see

Given up my hand
(You set yourself free)
Given up a hand for free
Given up my hand
(You set yourself free)
But you set yourself free
