Sister, Sister

Sister, Sister

There is something hiding in the shadows of your eyes,

Something you are hiding from your friends and from me.

You told me all sorts of reasons, lies,

Excuses, for why at bedtime you’d scream.

Sister, sister, why do you cry in the dark at night?

Won’t you tell me why you have your nightmares, your scary dreams?

I can hear you and your boy yell and scream and fight.

Sister, Sister, tell me please.
