How Long

Brother Cane

I'll set out one day

Maybe you will follow

Let come what may

Oh a glass of fear to swallow

Got to get it over

If black and white were blind like in a dream

In a million years maybe

Maybe we'll never know, no never

I want a chance to love whatever



(tell me how long)

How long my brother

Can we turn away?

(tell me how long)

There's anger and bitterness here

Can you tell me how long?



No empathy

Like I'm supposed to feel some

Through misery

Shut my eyes like the next one

Look for satisfaction

Only see the lines that hide my face

Never find a resolution

Locking the doors in fear together

Holding the pain inside forever



(tell me how long)

How long my brother

Can we turn away?

(tell me how long)

There's anger and bitterness here

Can you tell me?

Can you tell me?

How long?

Come on and tell me

Yeah how long?



(solo)



How long my brother

Can we turn away?

(tell me how long)

There's anger and bitterness here

Can you tell me?

Can you tell me?

(tell me how long)

How long my brother

Can we turn away?

(tell me how long)

How can we see our way clear?

Oh Can you tell me?

How long?
