Brother Farewell
You’re free now, baby
No more restraints
No ominous darkness behind each day
All the fears have gone their way
The aching bones
The lonely heart
They've left you now
You can start your time anew
Without suspicion
Or worry
Or lingering despair
You’re free now, baby
So go your way
Your path is bright
Your heart unchained
Time for reality, no more delusion
The way of the soul invites no confusion.
Your truth is unfettered
And puts rest all illusion.
God Speed, my brother
I’ll see you soon,
In the place where the light shines
Bright as the moon.
