For a Brother Velvet Revolver

[Verse 1]
Can't rise from the bottom
Time flies when ya got it
Your time has receded
Wasted
Could and should have been
And didn't

[Chorus]
I've given up my hand for a brother
I've given up a hand for free
I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned
But you set yourself free

[Verse 2]
Nosedive
Crash to the bottom
Angel
Your wing was always broken
Fought for rights of the prophets
Not for the spirit of your daughters
Didn't

[Chorus]
I've given up my hand for a brother
I've given up a hand for free
I've risen and forgiven and I've pardoned
But you set yourself free
