You don't know why... <br />He. <br />Beats you! <br />And to me you come to cry... <br />Why? <br />When you knew <br />What he'd do <br />If he found out <br />About me and you. <br /> <br />And this blood I have, <br />Is in my brother! <br /> <br />You don't know why... <br />He. <br />Beats you! <br />And I die <br />Everytime <br />I <br />Hear you scream. <br />And I try <br />To stay back away. <br />Because he doesn't know <br />You're my lover! <br />Maybe he does... <br />I can not say! <br /> <br />I want to tell him I feel like that! <br />But he's my brother. <br />I want to tell him I feel like that... <br />And he'll beg you back. <br />And like that... <br />You'll leave me for my brother. <br /> <br />I want to tell him I feel like that! <br />But he's my brother. <br />I want to tell him I feel like that... <br />And be glad, <br />Because these beatings are beating me bad! <br /> <br />I want to tell him I'm feeling like that! <br />Since he's my brother. <br />I want to tell him I'm feeling like that... <br />And make it fact, <br />That this whole thing started in my sack! <br /> <br />I want to tell him I'm feeling like that! <br />Since he's my brother. <br />I want to tell him I'm feeling like that... <br />And make it fact, <br />That this whole thing started in my sack! <br />Starting with you and him, <br />Behind my back! <br /> <br />I want to tell him I'm feeling like that, <br />Since he's my brother. <br />I want to tell him I'm feeling like that... <br />Anyday. <br />But today I'm lost for words to say! <br />And anything I say... <br />He'll make us pay! <br />Because remember my brother, <br />Thinks I'm gay!<br /><br />Lawrence S.
