Marcel Haag My Brother Lyrics
My Brother by Marcel Haag
My brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
My brother, what have you done?
When I came home, you were gone
My mother cried her most bitter tears
I hardly cried in all those years
I swallowed them entirely
They turned into shadows haunting me
I dreamed of you here and there
You were as alive as I always knew you were
When you left for the door in these dreams of mine
I felt this fear that you might not return
O my brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
My brother, what have you done?
When I came home you were gone
I was out in camp that weekend
That evening I had a long conversation with a friend
I felt a sadness then that I could not pin
But when I heard the news I knew what it had been
You'd poisoned yourself with some reddish drink
You died in an instant, you left in a blink
When my mother's friend tried to wake you up
Your body had stiffened like a cup
The cup was empty for you were gone
My brother, what have you done?
My brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
After all those years I'm still full of tears
But after all those years your face slowly disappears
My brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
My brother, what have you done?
When I came home you were gone
Marcel Haag
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
My brother, what have you done?
When I came home, you were gone
My mother cried her most bitter tears
I hardly cried in all those years
I swallowed them entirely
They turned into shadows haunting me
I dreamed of you here and there
You were as alive as I always knew you were
When you left for the door in these dreams of mine
I felt this fear that you might not return
O my brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
My brother, what have you done?
When I came home you were gone
I was out in camp that weekend
That evening I had a long conversation with a friend
I felt a sadness then that I could not pin
But when I heard the news I knew what it had been
You'd poisoned yourself with some reddish drink
You died in an instant, you left in a blink
When my mother's friend tried to wake you up
Your body had stiffened like a cup
The cup was empty for you were gone
My brother, what have you done?
My brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
After all those years I'm still full of tears
But after all those years your face slowly disappears
My brother, where have you gone?
I hope you can hear me, this is your song
My brother, what have you done?
When I came home you were gone
