I whisper,"You don't have to worry, we'll survive" Forced smiles underneath the brittle, frozen light No proof that you're alive Cold fingers find the curve below your tired eyes No comfort in familiar places, not this time You hold it deep inside
Oh sister, if you wake up in the night Walls are falling, letting in the light No need to worry Baby, even angels cry No flood warnings, still the waters rise Flowers through asphalt, Diamonds in the pockets of your eyes Turn your face and hide I saw a woman with ribbons in her hair Old and lonely, so beautiful I had to stop and stare The well will not run dry
Oh sister, if you wake up in the night Walls are falling, letting in the light No need to worry Baby, even angels cry
Oh sister, if you wake up in the night Walls are falling, letting in the light No need to worry Baby, even angels cry
Cry Sister, if you wake up in the night Walls are falling, letting in the light It'll be alright Baby, even angels cry
