Bloodrock Lyrics
"Song For A Brother"

If you saw your brother walking down the street
Would you treat him just like anyone else?
Have you stopped to think that it might be true
That all men are your brothers?

Well I'm not quite that blind as to think that someday
Each might be kind to one another
I'm just saying, why must they
Be quite so thoughtless?

People seem bewildered, keeping fronts to hide
Their gentle thoughts that they are thinking
Crowds of lonely people searching for acceptance
Never finding what they're needing

Looking past each other, carelessness the cause of all
Contempt that they are breeding
And I keep asking, why must they
Be quite so thoughtless?

Mmm, why so thoughtless?

Maybe in the future, people will discover
How to talk with one another
They will be defenseless, that's because they will not
Feel the need for false defenses

They will learn to love, learn to have compassion without
Fear from consequences
They'll glance back and ask
"Why were you so thoughtless?"

Oh, why so thoughtless?
