Lyrics
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.
Wake up
You're gonna wake up to nothing
Break up
The break up is coming
When your heart is hollow
Another pill to swallow
Shake up
Gotta shake up, you're freezin'
Make up
I'm gonna make up my reasons
I used to say I need you
But now I gotta leave you
Sister, sister, what did they do to you?
Sister, sister, what did they do to you?
Did they take and tried to break
A heart that long
It's so wrong
Hung up
Got me hung up in draft
Rung up
Got me rung up in bed
They took advantage of
The one who showed you love
Sister, sister, what did they do to you?
Sister, sister, what did they do to you?
Did they take and tried to break
A heart that long
It's so wrong
So long
So long
