Sister,
Teach me poetry, teach me song
I hurt you now I want to cry along
Teach me all I am supposed to know
To make it onto the frontrow

Sister,
Come on up to the house tonight
I got the kitchen, I lack the insight
Teach my blood, my skin and bones
To make it to the bed alone

Brother,
Release me from this butterfly net
(sister, sister)
I don't have wings and my cheeks ain't wet
(sister,sister)
The more I think of you the older I get

Sister,
Show me darkness,darkness in the light
I fought you now I need you to win the fight
Show me all I'm supposed to see
And lay your soothing hands on me

Brother release me from this butterfly net 
(sister, sister)
I don't have wings and my cheeks ain't wet
(sister,sister)
The more I think of you the older I get

God have mercy on my soul
I'll never return the things I stole
Sister taught me all she knew
Now I don't have time for you
