City and Colour - O'Sister

O' sister
What's wrong with your mind?
You used to be so strong and stable
My sister
What made you fall from grace?
I'm sorry that I was not there to catch you

What have the demons done?
What have the demons done?
With the luminous light once shined from your eyes
What makes you feel so alone
Is it the whispering ghosts
That you feared the most

But the blackness in your heart won't last forever
I know it's tearing you apart
But it's a storm you can weather

O' sister
Those lines etched in your hands
They're hardened and rough like road map of sorrow
My sister
There is a sadness on your face
You're like a motherless child that's longing for comfort

Whats running through your veins
That's causing you such pain?
Does it have something to do with the pills they gave you?
What is eating at your soul?
Was it the whispering ghosts that left you out in the cold?

But the blackness in your heart
Won't last forever
I know it's tearing you apart
But it's a storm you can weather

O' sister
My sister
O' sister
My sister
