JEWEL - little sister Lyrics

Jewel
Pieces of you
little sister
hey little sister i heard you went to mr. so and so, knocking on his door / again last night, said you needed it bad / you know that ain't right

'cause so many times you've come to me crying / trying to stop, you said it hurts so bad / but please don't let you / go back for more

my little sister is a zombie in a body / with no soul a role she has learned to play / in a world today where nothing else matters / but it matters, we gotta start feeding our souls

not our addictions or afflictions of pain / to avoid the same questions we must / ask ourselves to get any answers / we gotta start feeding our souls

have been lost to the millions with lots / who feed on addiction selling pills and what's hot / i wish i could save her from all their delusions / all the confusion

of a nation that starves for salvation / but clothing is the closest approximation / to god and he only knows that drugs / are all we know of love

every day we starve while we eat white bread / and beer instead of a handshake or hug / we spill the pills and sweep them / under the rug

my little sister is a zombie in a body / with no soul a role she has learned to play / in a world today where nothing else matters / but it matters, we gotta start feeding our souls

hey little sister i heard you went to mr. so and so's / knockin' on his door again last night / said you needed more
