Defeater - Brothers lyrics

[Verse 1] You need to get out of this house I'll walk you down to town We'll go act our age Kick rocks, waste summer days Penny candy at the general store I'd buy us a pop if I had more Keep walking inland all day Spitting and cursing each other's name [Chorus] Ain't this what, ain't this what brothers are supposed to do? The blood between us, makes it all but true [Verse 2] So we roll on through Out past the quarries, sandpits too Swim out among the rocks and cliffs Ignorant youth keeps us from d**h Find our way out to the tracks The sun, it beats down on our backs Well, heaven help us if there's a train Dodge it like the beaches of Normandy [Chorus] Ain't this what, ain't this what brothers are supposed to do? The blood between us, makes it all but true [Outro] And we saw that smoke rising over trees And I swore, I swore, I swore that train was out for me So I held him tight and felt those tracks rumble underneath He swore, he swore if I didn't let go he would knock me off my feet And that's what he did And that's what he did And that's what he did And that's what he did
