Melchor breaks down in an emotional outpouring of loss, nostalgia, and familiarity. He sings of reconnecting with a childhood best friend after a mutual connection of theirs passed away, and we feel the tremendous anxiety and passion in his soul as he attempts to make sense of it all – the passing o...
Brook Revisited
Have you ever seen someone with dreamcatchers for teeth
Islands in their eyes and fire in their speech
Hair grown like the willow tree and water runnin' in their name
And so how could you blame
A river born is water that was meant to move
How could I catch water that ran through my youth
Everyday I wonder what you turned into and what you became
Are you the very same
Are you the very same
Brook who told me you're the one I needed
I was in the kitchen while my heart was bleedin'
Oh, I never knew if it was okay to feel it
Oh, I suppose I should know
The past is void, and all the future’s too
And neither will make sense just as they never do
Julie called me up and when she asked me if I heard the news
I knew that it was true
I knew that it was true
When Brook told me Drew’s the one you're leavin'
I was in the kitchen while my heart was bleedin'
Oh, I never knew if it was okay to feel it
Oh, I suppose, I should know
The loudest prayers are silent in the way they move
The greatest secrets ever found are in my youth
We’re all just a couple kids with dreamcatchers for teeth
Islands in our eyes and fire in our speech
Tryin' to find some freedom from the troubled streams of form
That's why I feel it all
That's why I feel it all
When I told Brook you're the one I needed
I was in the kitchen while my heart was bleedin'
Oh I never knew if it was okay to feel it
Oh, I should know, I should know
You leave, you turn me to see my
Body’s just a monument the spirit bleeds in
Drawn in like the river, drawn in like the brook, and
Oh, I should know, I should know
You’re never comin' back
You're never comin' back
You're never comin' back
You're never comin' back
