1. The sleaze/punk influenced metal outfit known as SISTER, who hail from Stockholm/Jönkoping Sweden, formed in early 2006 working hard to build up a name as a strong act both live and in the studio. SISTER consists of 4 members- Jamie on vocals, Tim on guitars and backing vocals, Rikki on bass and backing vocals, and Cari on drums and backing vocals- who combine the sounds of Punk, Glam, Rock, and Metal with an end result sounding something like the bastard child of GG Allin and Guns N' Roses.

In 2008 SISTER toured Europe in countries such as Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Holland, Denmark and Norway and released an EP, Get Down N' Boogie. 2009; SISTER released the EP Deadboys Making Noise and a video for the track “Too Bad for You,” which got garnered great reviews from critics and fans alike while also catching the attention of Primordial’s Alan Averill 'Nemtheanga'.

Walk With Me
Sister Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

He does whatever I plead
Dirty bathrooms licked clean
I'm standing in your robe
Flesh pierced by the cold
Hanging on by a thread
He looks less depressed
When he's with me
When he's with me

When he's with me
Play bloody knuckles in my mouth
Pretend the things I know about
Tear me down
I can't do without
I want you to hear me
From the inside out
Reach down
You're obsessed with me
He looks less depressed
When he's with me

When he's with me
When he's with me

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Sister's song "Walk with Me" convey a complex and somewhat troubling dynamic between two individuals. The singer describes a person who will do whatever they ask and even clean dirty bathrooms. The line "I'm standing in your robe, flesh pierced by the cold" suggests a sense of vulnerability and discomfort, perhaps metaphorically describing the singer's feelings of being exposed and hurt. The imagery of hanging on by a thread indicates a fragile state, while the mention that the person looks less depressed when they are with the singer suggests some sort of emotional relief or support.

The next set of lines brings a darker tone as the singer mentions playing "bloody knuckles" in their mouth, pretending the things they know, and being torn down. This may symbolize a destructive and masochistic relationship where the singer is willing to endure pain and self-deception for the sake of the connection. The line "I want you to hear me from the inside out" hints at a desire for deep emotional understanding and validation, even if it means exposing their innermost vulnerabilities.

Throughout the lyrics, there is a sense of obsession, possessiveness, and codependency. The repeated phrase "he looks less depressed when he's with me" reinforces this idea that the singer's presence brings some temporary relief from the other person's emotional distress. Overall, "Walk with Me" explores themes of power dynamics, emotional manipulation, and the complexities of relationships.

He does whatever I plead
He does whatever I ask him to do

Dirty bathrooms licked clean
I clean the dirty bathrooms

I'm standing in your robe
I am wearing your robe

Flesh pierced by the cold
I feel the piercing cold on my skin

Hanging on by a thread
I am barely holding on

He looks less depressed
His mood improves

When he's with me
When he is in my presence

Play bloody knuckles in my mouth
Engage in a dangerous game in my mouth

Pretend the things I know about
Act like I am unaware of what I know

Tear me down
Emotionally hurt or dismantle me

I can't do without
I can't live without
