oh sister, what's wrong with your mind?
you used to be so strong and stable
my sister, what made you fall from grace?
i'm sorry that i was not there to catch you

what have the demons done?
what have the demons done,
with the the luminous light that once shined from your eyes?
what makes you feel so alone?
is it the whispering ghosts that you feared the most?

oh sister, those lines etched in your hands
they're hardened and rough like a road map of sorrow
my sister, there is a sadness on your face
you're like a motherless child who's longing for comfort

what's running though your veins,
that's causing you such pain?
does it have something to do with the pills they gave to you?
what is eating at your soul?
was it the whispering ghosts that left you out in the cold?

but the blackness in your heart won't last forever
i know it's tearing you apart, but it's a storm you can weather
