My brother swims against the tide
Naked in the water he has nowhere to hide
The results of his blood test were written in the sand
But it's not the drugs that make the man
It'll all be washed away eventually
Even the memories walking through your dreams
It'll all be forgotten eventually
Even the most embarrassing scenes
He got it on prescription
And he fits the description
Of a man who's blood has turned to dreams
Found floating facedown tangled up in seaweed
Making bait on which the fishes can feed
It'll all be washed away eventually
Even the memories walking through your dreams
It'll all be forgotten eventually
Even the most incriminating scenes
My brother swims against the tide
Naked in the water he has nothing to hide
My brother floats along with the tide
Carried away to somewhere out of sight
It'll all be washed away eventually
Even the memories walking through your dreams
It'll all be forgotten eventually
By just about everyone except for me
Naked in the water he has nowhere to hide
The results of his blood test were written in the sand
But it's not the drugs that make the man
It'll all be washed away eventually
Even the memories walking through your dreams
It'll all be forgotten eventually
Even the most embarrassing scenes
He got it on prescription
And he fits the description
Of a man who's blood has turned to dreams
Found floating facedown tangled up in seaweed
Making bait on which the fishes can feed
It'll all be washed away eventually
Even the memories walking through your dreams
It'll all be forgotten eventually
Even the most incriminating scenes
My brother swims against the tide
Naked in the water he has nothing to hide
My brother floats along with the tide
Carried away to somewhere out of sight
It'll all be washed away eventually
Even the memories walking through your dreams
It'll all be forgotten eventually
By just about everyone except for me
