Lyrics Brother - Live at the Majestic Theatre, Brooklyn, NY - April 1996 - Alice In Chains

Frozen in the place I hide
Not afraid to paint my sky
With some who say I've lost my mind
Brother, try and hope to find
You were always so far away
I know that pain
So don't you run away
Like you used to do
Roses in a vase of white
Bloodied by the thorns beside
The leaves that fall because my hand
Is pulling them hard as I can
You were always so far away
I know that pain
I won't run away
Like I used to do
Pictures in a box at home
Yellowing and green with mold
So I can barely see your face
Wonder how that color taste
You were always so far away
I know the way
So don't you run away
Like you used to do
Thanks
We've been, we've waiting a long time to play this show
And I like to thank you all for coming out to see it
Means a lot to us, and uh
We're gonna have a good time
Play some good songs to you
This song's called "No excuse"
