somebody’s brother; somebody’s son - cock sparrer lyrics

Loading...

it was a great night, now he walks under the stars
homeways, bestways through the park
another day waits to chase away the dark
but the future can change like a roulette wheel
a shout, then a push, then a glint of steel
so begins a hurt that never heals

and when it’s all over, it’s over forever
you can’t change what’s been done
a flash of a knife on a cold, dark night
somebody’s brother; somebody’s son

the bus turns up but it’s much too late
the cops turn up to investigate
the moon shines on despite the clouds of hate
the nurse looking down strokes his hair with a sigh
her thoughts turn to loved ones, a tear in her eye
another life wasted to feed someone’s mad pride

and when it’s all over, it’s over forever
you can’t change what’s been done
a flash of a knife on a cold, dark night
somebody’s brother; somebody’s son

christmas trees and birthday cakes
holidays and cold milkshakes
knowing how that first kiss feels
first time behind the steering wheel
wedding bells and carriage clocks
easter eggs and novelty socks
the patter of footsteps, her first smile
walking her proudly down the aisle
gone forever
gone forever

the knock on the door comes at 6 a.m
cuffs rubbing tightly against his skin
his mother shouts “where are you taking him?”
the judge says a minimum fifteen years
he looks straight ahead, tries to hide his fears
his dad holds his mum and wipes away her tears

and when it’s all over, it’s over forever
you can’t change what’s been done
a flash of a knife on a cold, dark night
somebody’s brother; somebody’s son
(x2)
