I whisper,"You don't have to worry, we'll survive"

Forced smiles underneath the brittle, frozen light

No proof that you're alive

Cold fingers find the curve below your tired eyes

No comfort in familiar places, not this time

You hold it deep inside



Oh sister, if you wake up in the night

Walls are falling, letting in the light

No need to worry

Baby, even angels cry



No flood warnings, still the waters rise

Flowers through asphalt, Diamonds in the pockets of your eyes

Turn your face and hide

I saw a woman with ribbons in her hair

Old and lonely, so beautiful I had to stop and stare

The well will not run dry



Oh sister, if you wake up in the night

Walls are falling, letting in the light

No need to worry

Baby, even angels cry



Oh sister, if you wake up in the night

Walls are falling, letting in the light

No need to worry

Baby, even angels cry



Cry Sister, if you wake up in the night

Walls are falling, letting in the light

It'll be alright

Baby, even angels cry



Baby, please don't worry

Not tonight
