Sibling Rivalry Lyrics

Little boy, flavourless

Impress your dad, don't forget the code

Don't draw the attention unless you can win

You're treading a thin line

Little girl, a prodigy

Impress your dad, he favours you

Knowledge is power, so use it well

Secure your place in the world

Siblings, they may be

A sibling rivalry

If it's all a game

Don't get burned by the flame

Little boy, on your own

Keep your eye on the task

Feed your illusions, go trick yourself

To keep your place on earth

Little girl, all alone

Take your friends, control the world

Use fear as a weapon and lies as a bait

Keep your head straight

Siblings they may be

A sibling rivalry

If it's all a game

Don't you lose your own flame

Grow up boy, you have a choice

Open your eye, read between the lines

The one you admire stands against

Everything you are

Little girl, you are powerful

And your dad, he sees it too

Will he still 'love' you, or is he afraid

That you will take his place

Siblings rivalry

A father's love should be free

If it was a game

The stakes wouldn't mean death and shame

Boy get up, set things right

Go with compassion, and inner fire

Play the game, draw the strings

Secure the place from within

Foolish girl, alone again

Abandoned by family and friends

With all of your power, there's no one to rule

Your claim to need no one

She had it all

Unsettled by insanity's call

It tipped the scale,

His weakness became his strength

And she's not understanding

And he regrets

That his little sister won't accept some help

But how could she learn if

Her own mother

Tried only to

Shield her brother

A pit of snakes, venomous (but how could she learn if)

Environment, poisonous (her own mother)

It (tried only to)

Sent her adrift (teach her brother)

Little boy, now you're home (but how could she learn if)

Duty calls, all-powerful (her own mother)

Rise up(tried only to)

to your destiny (save her brother)

To your destiny (But how could she learn if)

To your destiny (Her own mother)

To your destiny (Tried only to)

To your destiny (Save her brother)
