[Verse 1] One language, one root, one soul in flame, One wound that echoes with no name. One thrill, one fear, one sacred sign — The sword, the cross, the fatal line. [Verse 2] You’re like me — it hurts to see, We bled together, salt in the sea. In our blood — the ash, the steel... Should I forgive you — or should I kneel? [Chorus] Brother, when did we get lost? When did "Thou shalt not kill" get tossed? What’s left of us beneath the skies? Oh Lord, bring wisdom to the blind. [Verse 3] You were my brother — now you burn, So close you came — no time to turn. We fight for ground, for ghostly fame, And lose our dead — we bear the blame. [Verse 4] We split our God, divide our kin, But who will measure pain within? Your voice still echoes through my chest — Yet now you call me your conquest. [Chorus] Brother, when did we get lost? When did "Thou shalt not kill" exhaust? What’s left of us beneath the skies? Oh Lord, bring wisdom to the blind. [Bridge – slow, dramatic] What are we doing to our land? I see your face in my own hand. And that’s why sleep won’t come tonight: My foe’s my brother… I’m the blight. [Final Chorus – more powerful, layered vocals] Brother, when did we get lost?! When did “love thy soul” get lost?! What’s left of us? What have we done?! Oh Lord… Oh Lord… bring back the sun.
