lyrics

This graphic design is making me sick
but it is my punishment to sit here and stare at it
when my sister Mary went blind from the fever
I promised to help her and never to leave her

Do you want to sympathize with me, a traitor?
Do you want to come to care for me, a consummate betrayer?

This coffee machine is spitting at me
but it is my punishment to sit here and take it
when my sister Mary went to live with the Ursulines
I would not see her past the gate of the convent

Your color of lipstick is making me hungry
but it is my punishment to refuse all nourishment
My sister Mary wrote me in cramped lines,
told me she was thriving in the care of the Ursulines

Do you want to sympathize with me, a traitor?
Do you want to come to care for me, a consummate betrayer?
Do you want to sympathize with me, a traitor?
Do you want to come to care for me, a consummate betrayer?
