He Did It For Me -

I was walking down the street
Minding my own business
When a local i spotted called me over

So i decided to go cross
To see what he wanted
But all that he said was this ...

I used to watch you as a child
Back then i didn't mind
But now that your older
I think you should know

I had to suffer, suffer, suffer
At the hands of your brother
As he beat his hands upon me

I had to wonder, wonder, wonder
If i would soon see your mother
So that she could get him off me

Picturing this was a dreadful thought
As i knew that the man was decent
I kinda remembered of what he spoke about
But all that i could think of was this ...

I used to watch you as a child
Back then i didn't mind
But now that your older
I think you should know

I had to suffer, suffer, suffer
At the hands of your brother
As he beat his hands upon me

I had to wonder, wonder, wonder
If i would soon see your mother
So that she could get him off me

These few short phrases that he said to me
Stuck in my head throughout the day
I couldn't concentrate on what i wanted to do
Cus' all i could i hear was him say ...

I used to watch you as a child
Back then i didn't mind
But now that your older
I think you should know

I had to suffer, suffer, suffer
At the hands of your brother
As he beat his hands upon me

I had to wonder, wonder, wonder
If i would soon see your mother
So that she could get him off me

I decided to go see my brother
To see what really went on
I knocked on the door
He answered alone

I walked in without talking
He could tell that something was up
I said to him "listen to this"
i told what the man had said, i told him ...

He used to watch me as a child
Back then he didn't mind
But now that i was older
He thought it was time that i should know

He had to suffer, suffer, suffer
At the hands of my brother
As you beat your hands upon him

He had to wonder, wonder, wonder
If he would soon see our mother
So that she could get you of him

He stood there in shock
He didnt know what to say
I asked for an explanation
He said ...

I used to watch you as a child
Back then i didn't mind
How he used to treat you

But as the weeks went on
Nothing seemed to change
So i had to take over

Yes, He had to suffer, suffer, suffer
At the hands of your brother
As I beat my hands upon him

Yes, He had to wonder, wonder, wonder
If he would soon see our mother
So that she could get me off him

But you know why i did it?
It's was all because of you
I cared for you to much

I stood there in shock
I didnt know what to say
I had heard the explanation
So i said ...

I'm really glad that he suffered
At the hands of my brother
Cus' hes the best you could ever have

I'm really glad that i came here
So as to find this out
Your the best brother a guy could ever have

I don't think so.

What I got was that it was about someone who is confronted by someone who was beat up by their brother. It then gets a little wierd as it says how 'shocking' it is and then how glad the person is.

Doesn't make much sense to me... and therefore I don't like it. Sorry.

I like it, but as others have been saying, the meaning is very hard to see. You may have a reason for it, and if so, then that's cool. I've written songs where nobody could possibly know the meaning, and, for me, those songs were meant to be more of self expression, than a message sent out. I really think it's cool how you wrote about seeing somebody on the street, and they just start saying things to you that you don't understand completely. It kind of gives the song an eerie theme, and I like songs like that sometimes. Good job! Cheers!
