Lyrics

[Verse 1] Your voice stands out from the rest Four brothers, but you seem like the youngest I only knew you as the smart kid But you're so much more than just inventive Sick in bed with a cold or something A lot of time for me to do nothing But watch you on my screen And find glee in your celebratory jumping Star of the show, everything I want to be While still sharing the same problems as me [Chorus] I've seen you die a few times now Each death horrifically worse They say that you're the worst fighter You play with sticks in the dirt They let your brain redefine you From the badass you were I took so long to find you And swallow up your hurt [Verse 2] This iteration was something special You were a sweet soul, a fighter, and helpful The best parts from every version You found religion all too stressful Where was the logic in the spectral You gave me complete immersion Even when you built portals to other dimensions Even with your life-saving inventions I still kept hope that we shared a spirit And when your shell gave you no damn protection And you almost found heavenly ascension Our story still felt oh so coherent [Chorus] I've seen you die a few times now Each death horrifically worse They say that you're the worst fighter You play with sticks in the dirt They let your brain redefine you From the badass you were I took so long to find you And swallow up your hurt [Bridge] I've seen you rise and fall, in all sorts of ways I've stood by you through it all, survived the hate 'Cause I know deep down, all the shit you take It'd cause you to drown, it'd make your whole head break If no one else will love you the way I do I hope you know you're welcome to stay in my room In my phone or on the pages, I would always give you grace if You brought danger to my home, 'cause I know just how far you'll go To keep me safe Whatever it takes Whatever it takes Whatever it takes
