Sister Gone

Sister gone, gone without a trace
Oh my princess who once graced this god-forsaken place

Speak to me softly, don't scare me away
Give me a reason before it's too late
Why you would disown me
And throw me away
To the dogs in the daylight, away

I follow them away from here
Take my chances with a pack of rabid, displaced freaks of nature
I trust them, they're o.k.

Give me excuses and hand me down lies
This isn't the first time, sister, why is it that you cry?
Castles crumble and empires fall so throw it all
To the dogs in the daylight, away

We're coming for you sister,
With the passing storm
We follow weather patterns,
Allies in the oldest war
Where are you going?
Seeking shelter from the rain,
But you're soaked through anyway

Hang over my head,
Sister chameleon at the foot of the bed
Would you give me the truth from the books that you read
And dance all the ways I never could learn
Hold your head up while your cigarette burns
And scream out your peace until it's my turn
