The Spill Canvas
"Half Brother"


I know you don't know me,
Or care what I do
I guess that's why I wrote this.
I just can't find the courage
To say it to you.

I know you don't see me,
Except for holidays.
My schedule gets crazy
I just can't see the air
Of my selfish ways

I'm sure you could've used a friend
You were too young to deal with divorce
But love is just taking its course
Yeah I know I never taught you anything at all
But I'll start by saying, "it's not your fault."

You've grown up so fast
I guess you didn't have a choice
You see the worst part of it
Is when I call, you just never recognize my voice

I'm sure you could've used a friend
You were too young to deal with divorce
You see love is just taking its course
Yeah I know I never taught you anything at all
But I'll start by saying, "it's not your fault."

Someday you'll meet a girl
And she'll become your oxygen
Or maybe give meaning to your world
And if she slips from out underneath
Just know that you always can crumble on me

You were too young to deal with divorce
But love is just taking its course
Yeah you were too young to deal with divorce
But love is just taking its course

I know I never taught you anything at all
I'll start by saying, "it's not your fault."
