My little sister

my little sister

she's about 16

she's the prettiest girl

you've ever seen

she's got all these worries

bowling in her brain

and she says she's insane

she cries in the night

life's too big to handle

she's waiting for someone

to light a candle

she plays her violin

until it's day

then all the pain has gone away

my sister, you're like no-one else

you know you're being too hard on yourself

lovers may come

and lovers may go

but you'll always have yourself

and me as your friend

I know life's a bitch

and then you die

but I think it's still worth it

at the end of the ride

these things were only meant

to make you stronger

to make you happy

to make you wise

so don't throw away that gift

and play that violin

let all of our friends come in

let the party begin

I can't tell you enough

how proud I am

to have a sister like you

my sister, you're like no-one else

you should love yourself before

you love someone else

lovers may come

and lovers may go

but you'll always have yourself

and me as your friend

people may say what they like

and you may not like what they say

you're not like anyone else

you're not like anyone else

my sister, you should see yourself

the only thing you miss is self-confidence

lovers may come

and lovers may go

but you'll always have yourself

and me as your friend
