Oh you used to tell me
Of your trials and your tribulations
All the vacuums of envy
And those who'd done you wrong
Well call me a skeptic
But I knew you were temperamental
Like the heir to an empire
Alluding to the fall
But I learned to balance
On the scales of a friendship at arm's length
Hinged on the days spent dreaming
And pulling fire from our fault
But I'll never fly the white flag for you
It isn't peace when you're caught up on payin' dues
So I send my regards to
A brother I once knew
The past prepared you for today
You were assuming collusion
Hallucinated blood left on my hands
And in a wave of confusion
Buried behind an iron wall
Well I wasn't the coward
I treaded light but with the best intention
But our exchanges had soured
And left the silence volatile
But I'll never fly the white flag for you
It isn't peace when you're caught up on payin' dues
So I send my regards to
A brother I once knew
The past prepared you for today
Send my regards to
A brother I once knew
The past prepared you for today
