For My Brother - Blue october

No pic, just lyrics...
No I don't have a brother, I just like this song. [=
I DON'T OWN THIS SHIZ. It is 100% Blue October's. Unless Universal owns some of it, then like, they own it too. So yeah.

[@freedom1439]

I’m clean and sober. For 3 years now.....YES! Thank you God!

[@critter68x1]

i have loved justin since the very first time my friend introduced me to his music. blue october is by far the best band ever!! i love all his songs...and especially "for my brother'...i know he hasn't lost his brother. it's pretty obvious, when he has him come up and sing the song with him....however, i lost my brother july 23, 1998. (heroin overdose..) so, i love this song and have thought of my brother since the first time i heard the song. my brother was and still is my very best friend...this song is great!! yep, i cry most of the times i listen to it...but. "my brother tells me everything will be OK!!" i love you, justin!!! thank you for all your great songs!!

[@balladofivan]

The relationship Justin and Jeremy share is so sweet. I'm envious, I wish my brother had been healthy and thriving. I would have treated him like a king.

[@Implosive1000]

I have 2 amazing brothers who comforts me through this rough life, They always are there for me, I have another brother, He's lost with drug's....I can't stand it when I see him.... I love you brothers....

[@masonchadwick8556]

I haven't really lost my brother, but I was effectively the closest thing he had to a father, and he kept me waking up each and every day. He was the motivation I had to live through the motivational and physical abuse I have suffered from both of my parents, and I will continue to live my life now that I have left that abusive house, so that he can have an older brother who loves him to no end. I hope I am able to be the bigger brother in this song and help him through any hard times he has in the future because he has helped me through some of my worst times just by existing (he is 2 now and I'm 17 and have recently moved out and contacted social services for help and guidance)

[@BradleyCooper2698]

How are things now?

[@manishia88]

Wow. I have always believed music is what feelings sound like. My baby brother was murdered in 05, and not a day goes by where I don't think of him. We had a far from normal, hardly more bitter than death its self kind of childhood, but no matter what was going on he would make the best of it and find the positive in any situation. He was more forgiving than anyone I have ever met. Anytime anything bad happens, or I feel down I can still feel him begging me for a smile... I miss him so

[@AlwaysZeKey]

to those with an every day struggle i feel for you my heart goes out

[@mathenmoore4251]

My brother sent me this shared too me.i listen too it when stress and anxiety overcomes me it makes me relax some to where i can handle my struggles.my brother has always been their for me hes 5yrs older than me.i was in bad accident as a child it left me messed up mentally and he usually when im home talks too me if i start getting overcome by lifes struggles he is my rock in life.i love him very much for his strength.it must take alot to be who he is to be mentally strong for us both.if you read this virgil moore thank you brother i love you very much.

[@anthonyscinto9362]

I realize now our brothers whom have passed want us to live. Mike I feel you in me. I love you and will meet you when this is over.

[@jonathanpayne6669]

Linda payne.miss you bro .this song reminds me of how unloved you felt I hope you are loved in heaven and that it is every thing you hoped it would be..I understand why you did what you did to yourself.i will always love you..I wish I had found church sooner so you could of got through each day. God keeps me sane.love your children no matter what.

[@ReikaWolf]

I lost my older brother last summer... It was the hardest thing to get through. This song reminds me of him in so many ways.

[@Horrock1]

Losing someone is never easy. When i lost my bestfriend, who was a brother to me, my big brother told me something that has stuck in my head since then. He told me I have to live for my best friend now. Those few words have been extremely helpful to me. Now, even though I'm just some random guy on the internet, if you've lost someone that close to you, or anyone at all you care about, you have to remember that. Never give up. Live for them to. I really hope this helps somebody.

[@melissahaug8089]

2 weeks ago, my little brother lost his battle. He fought so hard and for so long, but I think it was just too much for him to keep fighting. I miss him so much! I was the big sister..but It was him that taught me. He was my hero..fly high baby boy. RIP Nick..9/27/96-7/8/2017

[@TLIMSdisciple]

My brother died 7 November '15 about a week after his 23rd birthday. A part of me has seized to exist. I miss him so very much. Its surreal to me that I wont hear his voice again or laugh at any of jokes again. Amira, Randy,Rani and Shane I know what you are going through. Take it one day at a time. God bless you all.

[@Zprofesser]

A Brother is the closest thing you can lose, My brother died at age 37 to Methadone overdose, Don't let this happen to your brother stick next to him no matter what I wish I could have been there to stop his action's. We all fall short of glory in god's eyes. My Prayer's go out to all those that lost a brother like me, I know it's hard trust me no one can tell you anything that will make life better you just have to put one foot in front of the other miss you brother!

[@zimmerman73184]

Zprofesser I know it's long, but if this song evokes a strong emotional response in you, I think you'll appreciate reading this. The thing I'm most proud of so far in life is sticking by my older brother when he was addicted to meth. It was hard on all of us, but we kept trying because we knew he had a good heart. For a while, he lived in an apartment complex that was overrun with drug addicts. I couldn't believe such a place existed tbh. I still visited and just tried to find things to do with him like cards and video games. Every now and then I would force a small heart to heart. I even built him a computer so he could play games to occupy his time hoping he would stay out of trouble. Every time I went there I was on edge, and because I was clean everyone looked at me like I was a cop, and I got asked if I was more times than I can count. One time my brothers dealer/friend came and knocked on the door, hard. He was roughly 6' 2", me and my brother are 5' 9". My brother told me it would be fine, just wait inside. I waited inside, trying to listen to their encounter. It was heated. After hearing a thump, I looked out of the window to see my brother being choked and pinned against the hood of a car. He had been overpowered, full stop. I'm sure he asked for it. Before I could think, though, I was out there threatening this guys life. This guy was also my brothers "best" friend, btw. Immediately my brother said "If my brother's fighting you, I'm fighting you." With the two of us staring him down side by side, he backed off. I was ready to kill him, had he made a move. Instead, he walked away. That was the last time I saw him. I'll never forget that moment. I don't know if it reads well, but that moment was very powerful for both of us. Our bond was strengthened ten-fold without any words towards each other. Not long after, my brother moved home and sobered up. In addition to other efforts by me and my family, I think that moment had a major impact on him. I think he realized who was who, who was on his side, and what was important. Today he's been drug free for 5 years, has 3 kids and has graduated college. I couldn't be more proud of him. It's really funny seeing him turn into a dad, of all things. The entire experience taught me so many things, but two stick out: 1) Brothers who stick together can't be broken. "For my brother who keeps me sane" is apt. Also, judging each other only widens the gap and breeds contempt. Understanding what drives a person without judging allows you to give advice suitable to the situation, and the other person just might listen. We're all shitty people sometimes, just in different circumstances. Some circumstances turn bad decisions into major mistakes, but it doesn't change who the person is. 2)Treat people according to their heart condition. If you follow this simple rule, you'll find yourself surrounded by people you can trust. People who will fight for you. People who will help when you need it. People with good hearts can adopt each other into an extended family, all brothers and sisters. These are people who don't "keep score", expecting things in return for favors or expecting undue recompense for the kind of unperceived slights we all commit against each other on a regular basis. They forgive, forget, and offer their shirts without thinking. These are the people you want in your life. Frankly, a good heart is all that matters. If someone has a good heart, help them. Together we can be stronger than the corruption that so strongly influences our society. All we need is each other, and trust.

I lost my brother Roger Wright on August 30,2000 to Alcohol Poison. Thanks for posting the song. This song brings me closure to him.

[@7bMw11]

My 2 marine brothers are the best people that have ever happened to me. i trust them both will all of my life and they are the only 2 guys i truly love right now. i was crying off my face this morning because my oldest brother left to war in afghanistan today and its the worst feeling in the world to know that one of the only people that u've ever trusted ur life with just might lose his own.. i am praying for you kevin!! i love you so much!

[@PhilaHaze]

Love the song.. I have 3 older brothers... The 3rd oldest and I were the closest and he was killed 05/10/2007 and this songs brought back some tears and good memories...

[@ChalupaQueen13]

[@dntmakemegag]

Lost my brother 05-03-09. Paul Santos Perez. He was 19. He had a brain aneurysm. He was Big, and Beautiful, and I miss him.

[@ClaudioH72]

I hear you my friend. My brother was the closest person in the world to me for over 30 years. He was always by my side, we were inseperable. Now we both have wives who can't stand the sight of one another and don't want us to spend time with each other. I miss him like you won't believe. I see and talk to him only a handful of times a year. My wife knows that I'm missing something significant in my life but either she doesn't realize it ... or she doesn't care. I miss you bro. Miss you lots

[@Marine4Life93]

Lost my Brother 9/20/14... Still can't believe you did it brother.. I miss you.

[@ABS102697]

My best friend is like a brother to me. Idk what I would do if I lost him. He wants to be in the Air Force when we get done with school. He dislocated his knee last night and went to the hospital and everything. Then after that, he did wat every good soldier does and got out there and marched with our school band. Now he has the nickname Trooper :3 I hope he knows how proud I am of him. He is my hero. I love you, Ernest!

[@croakkerscroakkers3462]

My Brother died in July 27, 2001 while I was in the military.....its been very hard ever sense. He was 26 years old and the last time I talked to him we were in a argument...its a hard thing to get pass even after all these years.

[@kelsinator14986]

I've never had any er... problems, like he sings about in the song. But my 'brother' is absolutely wonderful. He'd stick with me through absolutely anything, just so that I'd be happy. He's the most amazing man I've ever met, and I can't imagine how I'd live without him. Thanks for being there, big brother.

[@elohel101]

My best friend is a lot like a brother to me in a lot of ways. He enlisted in the Marines a few years ago and wrote me often during basic. He ended all of his letters to me with "With a broken heart and a straight face.." My replies always finished that lyric, "I'm sayin' brother, help me." I don't know if he gained comfort from that or not, but it was a ritual we performed during ever letter sent. He's in Japan right now, and I'm thinking about him tonight.

[@michaelschlack4664]

i dedicate this song to my big brother who risked his own life to save mine. he passed away on feb. 12th 2010, my birthday. i have never been able to talk about it before so im gonna try to now. we had both gone out for my birthday and had been drinking. while i was blacked out on my couch a fire had started in my attic, my brother was well aware of what was goin on and got me out in time before the house had collasped on him. he is my hero and my angel now. i love you bro!! 02/12/86 :'(

And now today he has a wife, two wonderful kids, and he is a great guy. I love my brother dearly.

Per Justin's book, "Crazy Making" he wrote this song for his rock, his brother when he left for college....he even left it for him on his dorm messages....he is simply saying he's going miss him!
