Sister

(album: Suicide Pact - You First - 1999)

Hey sister (What am I in for?)
What am I in for? (What is this place, and who are these people?)
What is this place? (Miles of wires, flourescent lights)
Who are these people? (Crimson faces, familiar hatred)

Miles of wires, flourescent lights
Crimson faces, familiar hatred
Miles of wires, flourescent lights
Crimson faces, knuckle necklace

Sister I'm lost
And I'm taking you with me
Wherever I go
Yeah, I'm taking you with me
'Cause sister I'm lost

And it's raining (Like I've never seen)
Like I've never seen (Thick red hot in pregnant drops)
Thick red hot in pregnant drops (I scratch my skin, I can't sleep, I'm barely awake)
I scratch my skin, I can't sleep (I'm suffocating in an open space)
I'm barely awake (I can't sleep)
I'm suffocating (I'm barely awake)
An open space (I'm suffocating in an open space)
I can't sleep
I'm barely awake (I can't sleep)
I'm suffocating (I'm barely awake)
I'm suffocating

Sister I'm lost
And I'm taking you with me
Wherever I go
Yeah, I'm taking you with me
'Cause sister I'm lost

Sister I'm lost
Sister I'm lost
Sister I'm lost

And I can't sit still (And I can't relax)
I can't relax (And I can't sit still)
(It's like trying to find my way out of someone else's nightmare)
(Trying to find my way out of someone else's nightmare)
(When does this madness end?)

Working for the same old people
Waiting for the same old man
(When does this madness end?)

Working for the same old people
Waiting for the same old man
(When does this madness end?)

'Cause sister I'm lost
And I'm bringing you with me (When does this madness end?)
Wherever I go
Yeah, I'm bringing you with me (When does this madness end?)

Sister I'm lost
And I'm taking you with me (When does this madness end?)
Wherever I go
Yeah, I'm taking you with me (When does this madness end?)
'Cause sister I'm lost (End, end, end, end)

Sister I'm lost
Sister I'm lost
Sister I'm lost
Sister I'm lost

Lost afternoons
Measuring time in spoons
