Sister
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
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
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
