Guided by Voices - Sister, I Need Wine lyrics

Sister, I need wine

For color in my skin

And darkness for my eyes

But I can see the light burn through

Still it is the night brings me to you

Sister, use your gift

The backed up river spreads

On ground for fighting words

And I am hating the ignorance in my body

And I can't feed on the heaviness

Sister, I need you

And we will dance for gold

And straddle the hour of fear

And learn the real story

Drink the truth

Shed not one tear
