My Brother Esau (Live at Providence Civic Center, Providence, RI - 3/31/86) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

My brother Esau killed a hunter

Back in 1969

Before the killing was done

His inheritance was mine

But his birthright was a wand to wave

Before a weary band

Esau gave me sleeplessness

And a piece of moral land

My father favored Esau

Who was eager to obey

All the bloody wild commandments

The old man shot his way

But all this favor ended when

My brother failed at war

He staggered home

And found me in the door

Esau skates on mirrors anymore

He meets his pale reflection

In the door

Yet sometimes at night I dream

He's still that hairy man

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

And wandering the land

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

And wandering the land

Esau holds a blessing

Brother Esau holds a curse

I would say that the blame is mine

But I suspect it's something worse

The more my brother looks like me

The more I understand

The silent war that bloodied both our hands

Sometimes at night

I think I understand

Really the night

More feelin' understand

Brother to brother

Man to man

Face to face

And it's hand to hand

Find the wall

Never ends

Never a big ends

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

Within

Silent wall within

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

Yet again

Yet again

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

And wandering the land

Hey

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

And wandering the land

Shadowboxing the apocalypse

And wandering the land
