Edward leaned back against the stiff wood of the old maple tree. He sighed, a small tear escaping his eye.
Haunted by the past a nightmare that seemed so unreal
Wish that I could turn back time and spare the pain that we both feel
And how we've changed, thing will never be the same
We were foolish then but our trials served to make us strong
The burdens are not yours alone we sought the answers for so long but they're not free
They cost you more than they cost me
My Brother
Another tear slipped from his eyes. There was a sharp pain is his chest, he gasped then let out a small whimper. Edward stood quickly.
I promise you, there is nothing I won't give
To see this through, return the soul to where it lives
I promise you, I'd go everywhere I've been
To find a way, to make atonement for my sin and see
See your smiling face again
Alphonse stood back, watching his brother at a distance. Behind the armor, there was worry. The worry was for Edward…
When we paid the price at last and we are whole once more
Life will be the way it was, the way it was before that day she slipped away
Together we'll redeem that day
Alphonse saw his brother flinch slightly; more worry began to swell.
I promise you, there is nothing I won't give
To see this through, return the soul to where it lives
I promise you, I'd go everywhere I've been
To find a way, to make atonement for my sin and see
See your smiling face
"I promise…" it sounded forced; maybe it was.
"I promise…"
"I promise you, there is nothing I won't give
To see this through, return the soul to where it lives
I promise you, I'd go everywhere I've been
To find a way, to make atonement for my sin and see
See your smiling face again"
"Thank you, Brother."
