Sister

Lyrics

Those spirits in the wood I can't count them all Run me down the briar Chase me till I fall The dead white witch's gaze Mirror's mine at night Dares my soul to sleep Wants my soul to keep Sister Sister of mine Set the sky on fire The savage kingdom is blind Those spirits in the wood I can't name them all Place me in a hood Walk me to the wall All these lonely things I have held so near You glean just the same Yet they're never here Sister Sister of mine Set the sky on fire The savage kingdom is blind The morphine drugged the man who marooned The captain steered the ship to ruin The crow released the Crimson balloon The morphine drugged the man who marooned
