lyrics

You were born in a house fire
You had died by the winter
Two hellhounds carried you home, to me
Home to me

You are my sister-self
He has bound our braids
And though He damns you back to life
You are warmer than before

Oh-
(You watch me change)
(How can you watch me change like this?)

I was wrong
You were right
I was wrong, this time
Of all the beds I've made, this is my own

Now i walk with doubled footsteps
And the blood within me stirs
And I don't get much sleep

Oh-
(You watch me change)
(How can you watch me change?)

No good deed will go unpunished, Lidian
