T.K.’s version:

Brother of mine,

Through thick and through thin,

I know of the love,

You keep for me within.

Though harsh you many act,

And cold you may play,

Brother of mine,

In my heart you will stay.

Protecting me from dangers,

Guarding me from harm,

Brother of mine,

Your actions are warm.

The love that you show,

The pain that you hide,

Brother of mine,

I’ll be by your side.

And through dangerous times,

And times when I’m scared,

Brother of mine,

I know you’ll be there.

In a world we don’t know,

In times when we can’t see,

I know when I look,

You’ll be there beside me.

Matt's version:

Brother of mine,

Though I may not be there,

I’ll know of your love,

The bond that we share.

Innocent burden,

One that I willingly hold,

Brother of mine,

Until I am old.

I’ll be there to guard you,

To guide and protect,

Brother of mine,

Is that what you expect?

The coldness I show,

The cruelty I play,

Dear brother of mine,

In my heart you will stay.

And through the mask,

I am forced to wear,

Brother of mine,

You’ll always be there.

And no matter what happens,

No matter how scared,

Brother of mine,

Look and I’ll be there.
