Sister Song Lyrics
Drive on, drive on
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
Your sister and me have a set of keys
Don't you worry your head 'bout a thing
Drive on, drive on
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
Drive on, drive on
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
Your sister and me will keep your place clean
so it shines when you finally come home
Drive on, drive on
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
Your sister and me have a set of keys
Don't you worry your head 'bout a thing
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone
Your sister and me will keep your place clean
so it shines when you finally come home
My special one
Don't you stop 'til you know you're gone

In an Interview, Perfume Genius gives the meaning: "I was imagining someone leaving all the things in someone’s room the same after that person had died, or that they were going to rehab and their family and friends would hold down the fort while they were gone."
My interpretation is that the singer is dying or dead and is singing to some family member to keep on going until he/she comes back to them (his/her sister and the singer) at the end of her life.
I don't know what the emphasis on the sister is all about. Perhaps I'm missing something?
