This song was written by Bobby Barnett for his older brother Greg, who plays in The Menzingers.

“Brother” explores Bobby’s struggles with depression and anxiety, as well as his and Greg’s difficult relationship with alcohol and addiction.

This is both a thank-you and a check-in on Greg, who had previously written the song “Sunday Morning” — to which “Brother”’s lyrics call back on several instances — in support for Bobby’s battle with mental illness.
