We were wild ones, runnin' in the pourin' rain Bled for each other, but we felt no pain Built a fire out of hopes and dreams Climbed over mountains and sailed over seas Time rolled on like a lonesome drum But I still know where I came from Shoulder to shoulder, carried the load Through the ashes and the afterglow The world may break us, but we won't let go 'Cause you're my brother and my blood and bone We were two ghosts, dancin' on an endless line And through the dark, you were my guidin' light Every fall was a story told Every scar was a band of gold Storm came down, but the roots held fast And the tides we tied were built to last Shoulder to shoulder, carried the load Through the ashes and the afterglow The world may break us, but we won't let go 'Cause you're my brother and my blood and bone If the night comes heavy, if the road runs long I'll be there with a battle song You and me, to the great unknown Bound together, carved in stone Shoulder to shoulder, carried the load Through the ashes and the afterglow The world may break us, but we won't let go 'Cause you're my brother and my blood and bone 'Cause you're my brother and my blood and bone
