LITTLE SISTER
("Revolving Door" CD)

Verse 1:
You seem cool, your thoughts collected
You’re out of school and unprotected
The smile you wear tells me things are less than fine
You laugh and dance, I think you’re happy
Then by chance reality slaps me
It reveals the same old pain I used to know
Bridge 1:
Coming through the other side, means there’s nothing left to hide
Chorus:
Little Sister, come on home. Little Sister, you're not alone
Verse 2:
Can’t measure up – an age-old message
So messed up we join the wreckage
When we believe that we’re less than who we are
We buy with zeal a promising potion
All to heal the downward motion
I want to know, Sister, who are we trying to please?
Bridge 2:
In your heart you’re not alone
It’s saying, “sister, come on home”
Verse 3:
A shiny stamp is the image
A virgin vamp on the line of scrimmage
She doesn’t know that it’s someone else’s dream
We scratch the edge of their pictures
We’re on the ledge like a fixture
Why do we fall for the doll of wax and straw?
