Gowan - Lost Brotherhood lyrics

rate me

(Lawrence Gowan)

On their street, on their strip

No one's ever free from their grip

You were weak, they were strong

An offer of security, a place to belong

Every now and then you'd hear a siren scream

Not exactly something from your mother's dream

They made plans, they made deals

Marked with their indelible seal

Every day, every night

You fell their mission about to ignite

Never could convince yourself there's nothing there

Now the holy face of terror is the one you wear

Another member of the lost brotherhood

You stumbled in the wrong neighbourhood

Swore you'd never become one

Now you find that you're one for good

No escape, no choice

Lost yourself to the power of their voice

You don't hear, you don't see

Your mind's a blank and you

Let it all be

Once upon a time I knew another you

Something must have happened

'Cause they've broken through

They're your blood, they're your kin

They're in your soul like original sin

You've got them, they've got you

And nothing's ever going to come between the two

Ain't it so ironic how it all works out

Isn't this what brotherhood

Is all about?

Another member of the lost brotherhood

You stumbled in the wrong neighbourhood

Swore you'd never become one

Now you find that you're one for good

Another member of the lost brotherhood

You stumbled in the wrong neighbourhood

Swore you'd never become one

Now you find that you're one for good

Swore you'd never become one

Now you find that you're one for good
