This disturbing song is based on a child Jamie Stewart encountered during his time working at a child development center in San Jose, California. There was a child there named Brian whose parents were migrant workers. They all lived in a garage and Brian’s older brother sexually abused him at night....
[Verse 1]
Brian, tender kisses
Run, run, run is my wish for you
Brian, tender drops of blood
Run, run, run, I am thinking of you
[Chorus]
How far does your brother go with you?
[Verse 2]
Brian, tender growing boy
Stay, stay, stay awake is my prayer for you
Brian, tender clutches
Run, run, run, I am thinking of you
[Chorus]
What happens to you when your dad hears your brother pull down your underpants?
