Once we were kids playing king of the mountain out on the end
World come chargin' up the hill, and we were women and men
We stood by each other's side, each one fightin' one for the other
And we swore until we died we'd always be blood brothers
Now the hardness of this world slowly grinds your dreams away
Makin' a fool's joke out of the promises we make
It's a long and dirty ride son, and there ain't much cover
With no one runnin' by your side my blood brother
On through the houses of the dead past those fallen in their tracks
Always movin' ahead and never lookin' back
And this dirty light shines across a highway way unfurled
And this love burns inside me like the last light in the world
In the night, shining bright, like some mystery uncovered
I'll keep movin' through the dark with you in my heart
My blood brother
