Little Sister



There's a ghost that lives inside of my head

She walks through my unquiet dreams

A delicate child, she unravels my world

And I come apart at the seams



Sleeping beauty has been here again and then gone

She visits when I am asleep

She knows about all of the things I've done wrong

She knows all the secrets I keep



Innocent eyes have closed to the dark

Caught in a frozen-life scene

The skin is still smooth and without age's mark

Little girl lost in a dream



Oh where has my little lost sister gone?

Where in the dark can she be?

Flown far away from this cold ugly world

She's gone somewhere I'll never see
