Brother's Keeper Lyrics

Stop weeping for your loss
It's over now
He's finally gone for good
I hope he's better off
Stop praying for forgiveness
In heaven he can't
Hit the bottle or his wife
It's gotta be for the best

[Chorus]
Oh please don't cry
I beg you not to weep
You are your brother's keeper
But your brother now
Your brother won't keep
His life wasn't in your hands
There's things here that are
Far beyond your control
Death's one of life's demands
Don't worry you're not to blame
Don't worry it's no one's fault
[Chorus:Repeat x2]

What a waste
What a waste
A life filled up with empty rage
What a waste
What a waste
I hope your soul is cleansed
When you reach that place

[Chorus:Repeat x2]
