Sister

Sister I remember

Mother kept happy when she could

Weather in December

Never felt as warm as it should

You were like a feather

Never land where we thought you would

Or anywhere close to it

Who would have thought you never would

So tell me what happens

When the waves break

And you’re surrounded

He tries to kill you

And you allow it

Sister I remember

The morning light on evergreen

What seemed like forever

Was just my mind escaping me

Imitation leather

The smell of blood left on the seat

Was that your way of proving

We look the same from underneath

So tell me what happens

When the waves break

And you’re surrounded

He tries to kill you

And you allow it

And you allow it

Over and over he says

I surround you

I surround you

I never leave my beloved

I’ve found you

I surround you

I surround you, I

I never leave my beloved

I’ve found you
