"Brother, Stand Beside Me" lyrics

So many sad songs written
Memories of a past so rotten
Exorcisms that took place
To rid you of that evil face
Those demons that beat you up
No future, an empty cup
Happiness just not allowed
Rid the beast, it's your turn now

You've waited for so long
Brother

Walk away in a cloud of shame
Feel the guilt, feel the pain
The black sheep that went astray
You're stronger now and here to stay
Horrid thoughts that run amok
Bad advice to just man up
Had enough of feeling foul
Rid the beast, it's your turn now

You've waited for so long
Brother, stand beside me
I knew you were too strong
To not find your way

You let it take ahold
Fought it off before it swallowed you whole
No more masters
The light of dawn has come
Can't stop you now for you have begun
No more masters
No more masters

Now is time to rise
Rise to those heights
That you thought were not real
Now is time to fight
Leave behind the past
Starting a new life
