Once Were Brothers

When the light goes out

And you can't go on

You miss your brothers

But now they're gone

When the light goes out

We go our own way

Nothing here but darkness

No reason to stay

Oh, once we're brothers

Brothers no more

We lost a connection

After the war

There'll be no revival

There'll be no one cold

Once were brothers

Brothers no more

When that curtain comes down

We'll let go of the past

Tomorrow's another day

Some things weren't meant to last

When that curtain comes down

On the final act

And you know, you know deep inside

There's no goin' back

Once were brothers

Brothers no more

We lost our way

After the war

Can't even remember

What we're fighting for

When once were brothers

Brothers no more

We already had it out

Between the north and south

When  we heard all the laughts

Comin' out of your mouth

But we stood together

Like we were next of kin

And when the band played dixie

(Dixie, dixie, dixie)

Dixie marchin' in

Once were brothers

Brothers no more

We lost our connection

After the war

There'll be no revival

There'll be no encore

Once were brothers

Brothers no more
