Clan of open wounds

 
cold breast gave sour visions
darkness needed a victim
I was not wanted
and neither were you, but to torment us

She played Queen, then left brother
It was no hat trick, rising the sun from nothing, brother
first to warm our nakedness
the dinosaurs to clothe you in your infancy
our design

Then came the clan of the cave bear days
You little blonde target for love
and love we did
Mom favored you
but she only came here to destroy

I wiped your tears
You are nothing like her or them
please look inside brother
I will abide

unconditional love
If we go to the gallows, we go together
and I will rise and smite them all
for this alone
