The Gun Club - Brother And Sister lyrics

Why do you keep me

way underground?

My sight is dying

as was the sound.

Why do you paint me

and cover me with jewels?

Where are we going?

What are we going to do?

you used to say, you'd take me home

but, I keep falling to the sister

brother falls unto the sister

keep getting pushed further and further

away

The sins of me

they buzz and hiss in the trees

their little skeletons

will harm no one

Why do you always

bring them back to me

they're kingdom come

and earth will be done

on heaven and earth and me

you used to say, you'd take me home

but, I keep falling to the sister

brother falls unto the sister

keep getting pushed further and further

away

And who is that there

always beside you

when I count us together

together we are only two

I had a dream

and there was foxfire in your hair

I am your brother, your lover

I give you my blood

I will follow you anywhere

you used to say, but, you never know

but, I keep falling to the sister

brother falls unto the sister

keep getting pushed further and further

away
