Ballad of Two Brothers

The bond of the two brothers. Inspired with Fullmetal Alchemist

Tell me, little brother of mine

How can I repay you?

All the things I stole

I can’t give it back at all

 

How can I make you forgive?

All the sins I made

Didn’t just cause you grief

But also wasted your breath

 

How could I make amend?

When everything's will never fall into place

What costed was your dear life

No matter what I couldn't return back

 

Tell me, what should I do?

Mother’s death cursed us two

And in vain I also drag you

I'm sorry your brother is a fool

 

Oh dearest mother so sweet

When you're gone we'd been incomplete

Back to the years we are one

Now we're divided and nothing can be done

 

Don't cry my big brother

Neither you nor I were innocent

Shed in blood our past is

Both of us are to be blamed

 

Clinging to that desire

Both of us took that crooked path

And fell to the hell we made

Since that day we are dead

 

That sin of yours is a sin of mine

We can't erase the things we did

But the future, we can still change

Isn't it right brother?

 

Oh dearest mother so sweet

When you're gone we'd been incomplete

Back to the years we are one

Now we're divided and nothing can be done

 

To where will we go?

When there's no place we belong to

Walking to the thorny path

Our shoulders feels so heavy

 

Blinded by that old dream

What was lost is forever gone

Can we ever go back to those times?

Mother we're sorry

 

We may not be whole

But two is always better than one

So let's start to forget and forgive

Even the past couldn't be fixed

All we had to do is to live

 

Author's Note

I'm just starting reading Fullmetal Alchemist manga and god I could cry a river for the Elric brothers. This is also inspired from one of the OST.
