Sister Pain

Hey little sister pain

Scarred with the taste of angels

My little keeper of pain

Hanging over my dark craddle



Shoot

Can I be forgiven

Shoot

Can I be forgiven

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah



Out in the blessed remains

Stung by a passing danger

Mark's looking for a plane

I'm looking for a stranger



Just shoot

Can I be forgiven

Shoot

Can I be forgiven

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah



Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah



Hey little sister pain

Scarredt with the taste of angels

My little keeper of pain

Hanging over my dark craddle



Shoot

Can I be forgiven

Shoot

Can I be forgiven

Shoot

Can I be forgiven

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah

Stay with me

Stay with me, yeah
