Seventh Sister

(album: Windows II - 2018)

You trade a pocket for a pocket knife
You forget me in your new disguise
You smile, I'm glad to be here, yeah

Stay awake
Don't be afraid of everything
Stay awake
Don't be afraid of everything

A rose by porch light
Every day you're one day older
But you say it's alright
Would you say you're getting closer
To waking up happy
Now you're alone and not with me
And I guess that I cannot do right
And I think it's all the pain that I can stand tonight, yeah

Kick, scratch, and claw
Don't seem so empty
While your seventh sister weaves away

Stay awake
Don't be afraid of everything
Stay awake
Don't be afraid of everything

A rose by porch light
Every day you're one day older
But you say it's alright
Would you say you're getting closer
To waking up happy
Now you're alone and not with me
And I guess that I cannot do right
And I think it's all the pain that I can stand tonight

Sweet like candy-painted toes
Sweet like everything above the ground will grow

A rose by porch light
Every day you're one day older
But you say it's alright
Would you say you're getting closer
To waking up happy
Now you're alone and not with me
And I guess that I cannot do right
And I think it's all the pain that I can stand tonight
