[Verse]
Twenty years wore a patch on my sleeve
Turns out it was all make-believe
Brothers in arms said they'd never leave
Now I'm alone and they refuse to grieve
[Verse 2]
Used to be solid one of the crew
Bound by a bond thought was true
But masks came off and I finally knew
Brotherhood gone flew out of view
[Chorus]
They called me brother then turned away
Left with a memory of a brighter day
Wasted time nothing more to say
In the night alone I stay
[Verse 3]
Back in the halls where shadows creep
Echoes of laughter no longer keep
A heart that's numbed by promises cheap
In the silence I find no sleep
[Bridge]
Guess I was blind deceived by the light
Fool’s gold shimmered so bright
Now I’m walking through the endless night
Wondering if I’ll ever be right
[Chorus]
They called me brother then turned away
Left with a memory of a brighter day
Wasted time nothing more to say
In the night alone I stay
