Sister Mother (Lyrics)

(sister/mother)
(sister/mother)
sister/mother i need your protection
sing a prayer
for my soul's insurrection
i know it's none of your business
but i'm in need of a hundred thousand dollar witness

drop my wallet
in the wishing well
but that's the same old
story they all tell
i know it's none of your business
but i'm in need of a hundred thousand dollar witness

and i can understand your fears
of saving souls still strong enough to fight
but i remember you telling me that
noone should be alone on a night with no end
(sister/mother)
and so it's clear why i'm here my friend
(sister/mother)
to read you every single song you sent me
(sister/mother)
and give you back that stupid book you lent me
(sister/mother)
and when excuses like these don't fit me
(sister/mother)
i tell 'em all about the power you give me
(sister/mother)

certain persons
some i know quite well
bought their ticket now they ride first class to hell
i know it's none of your business
but i'm in need of a hundred thousand dollar witness

holy daughter
sprinkled over me
La Guardian angel
lack of luxury
i know it's none of your business
but i'm in need of a hundred thousand dollar witness
and i can understand your fear of saving souls
still strong enough to fight
but i remember you telling me that
noone should be alone on a night with no end
(sister/mother)
got to be clear why I'm here my friend
(sister/mother)
i need a friendly lawyer to defend me
(sister/mother)
someone who's been to the places you send me
(sister/mother)
and no amount of fresh air could bend me
(sister/mother)
and i so i plant a flower to outlive me see
it grows to show all the power you give me (lean on me)
it grows to show all the power you give me (show you) (lean on me)
it grows to show all the power you give me
it grows to show all the power you give me
it grows to show all the power you give me
it grows to show all the power you give me
