Little Sister

We were wild, growing in the backyard
Making friends with all the trees, pulling treasures out of weeds
She got the clothes that I grew out of
I could never shut my mouth, but she was the quiet one

We didn't always want to, but we shared
I know that we're so different, but who cares?
She's always there beside me in the picture
She's the bigger person, my little sister

I'm sorry for the trouble that I caused her
Though we're both older now, I still feel bad
She's gotta know that I know that I don't deserve her
She's gotta know that I'd kill anyone who'd hurt her

We didn't always want to, but we shared
I know that we're so different, but who cares?
She's always there beside me in the picture
She's the bigger person, my little sister

Don't get me wrong
She can be wrong sometimes
It took me years to realize
Most of the time, she's right
Oh

No, we didn't always want to, but we shared
And I know that we're so different, but who cares?
She's always there beside me, taking my picture
She's the bigger person, my little sister
