"Dear brother"

Dear brother
What can I say, what can I offer you? a pretending hope perhaps...what then will become of me?

Do you not think I am not suffering also because of what WE did? Time doesn't go backwards but oh how I wish it was so dear brother.

Do you remember when we were children, how I looked after you? tended you when you fell?

Cast aside assumptions, cast aside doubt for it was you who was caught not I.
Why should I pay again? Why should I carry the can yet again for your sins?

Yes, sins brother, you're no angel and you know what I'm talking about don't you?

Keep telling yourself untruths, keep convincing yourself it wasn't so. Look long and hard but it won't change what WE did will it.

I tossed a coin when I read your letter, I tossed a coin to see confessions aplenty.
I won't tell you whether it was head's or tails because it doesn't matter whether you win or lose but how you play the game.

Bullshit!! it does matter who wins or loses we both know that yeah?
What do you want from me brother? guilt in the written word, want me to hand myself in?

We both know that ain't gonna happen.
So where do we both go from here dear brother?
Oh look one empty chamber, and what's this? One bullet! is it for me or you?
I know I'll toss a coin again, heads you win tails I lose ha ha.

Click..click..BANG!!!
