Sister you break my heart
You're not what you should be by now
And what you've become
Isn't who you really are
And so far
Is where you have gone
I can't even write you a half-decent song
So this poem I write for my sister
On my 19th birthday I sit here
It's early, but I already miss her
She's not here, but I guess that she's happier where she is
And so far
3AM and where are you now?
Not in your bed, or even the house
Sister you break my heart
I don't know if I can explain
The things I know you've done
The things I'd rather not say
And so far
I've watched you in marvelous pain
And the things that I wish I could feign
So this poem I write for my sister
19 years, and god knows I miss her
Now you're home and you're straight to your bed
She's right here, and I wish she were happy where she is
