lyrics

Come with me sister, take my arm
We’ll speak the truth, and hold back harm
That little boy he’s got your heart
Bright as the sun, this world don’t know it’s dark

Remember the time we broke from home
Neither of us was left alone
But home in the distance growing dim
If there’s a way out, then there’s a way back in

But underneath the floorboards, I’d never go
Trying to discover, I don’t know?
Whether there’s a window out to a swing
I’ll push you, so if you can’t push, well it doesn’t mean a thing

Come with me brother, lose your way
We’ll burn one down, and light the day
Now I’m not the man I hoped I’d be
But you’re far too smart to tell me what should be

Remember the time we ran like hell
From big kids with broken bottles, well
I’d never seen you turn like that
To face them ‘til my sister got safely back

But underneath the floorboards, I’d never go…
