Sister you, always told me where to go
Sister you, always taught me what to do
When it rained you were a shoulder
When I fell you held me closer

Took away, tore apart what was special
Broke the bond, stole the heart, from the lamb I loved
I will come in the night, you will suffer
Like a crippled dog whose day has come

Sister, what could you do, how could anyone hurt someone like you
Sister, why did you have to loose, he took away the best part of
The innocence that I knew, the tenderness that surrounded you
The spirit that followed, but couldn’t keep an eye on you 

Took away, tore apart what was special
Broke the bond, stole the heart, from the lamb I loved
I will come in the night, you will suffer
Like a crippled dog whose day has come 
Like a crippled dog whose day has come

Time has taken the shame of blistered trust
Lonely thoughts and hidden cries
Ushering in the strength from tears gone dry
And turned to pride


Took away, tore apart what was special
Broke the bond, stole the heart, from the lamb I loved
I will come in the night, you will suffer
Like a crippled dog whose day has come 
Like a crippled dog whose day has come
