Lyrics
|
|
Intense silence
|
As she walked in the room
|
Her black robes trailing
|
Sister of the moon
|
And a black widow spider makes
|
More sound than she
|
And black moons in those eyes of hers
|
Made more sense to me
|
Heavy persuasion
|
It was hard to breathe
|
She was dark at the top of the stairs
|
And she called to me
|
|
And so I followed
|
As friends often do
|
I cared not for love, nor money
|
I think she knew
|
The people, they love her
|
And still they are the most cruel
|
|
She asked me
|
Be my sister, sister of the moon
|
Some call her sister of the moon
|
Some say illusions are her game
|
Wrap her in velvet
|
Does anyone, ah, know her name
|
|
So we make our choices
|
When there is no choice
|
And we listen to their voices
|
Ignoring our own voice
|
|
|
