Little Sister
Words & Music: Benny Mann
March 1999

Benny Mann: vocals, guitar


I know you say you’re in control
In wild untamed lands
I know you say you’ve got a strangle-hold
Everybody’s got a plan...
But I’ve seen raging oceans
Rise round tiny isles
I’ve watched travlers miss setting suns
Into night time of denial


Little Sister
My ears strain to hear the call
Crash through your iron windows
Tear down your granite walls
Little Sister
My loves never grown colder
Its just my hands were bound by chains
As we grew ever older


Here I stand in foreign lands
Far from the war
Amidst lush dust and jungles of debris
Wishing on a star
I know I may be a pinprick of light
In a sky of black and blue
But I’ll become your raging comet
If you’ll just invite me through


Little Sister
I am standing tall and bright
Hoping that I’ll be your guiding
Watchfire in the night
Little Sister
My loves never grown colder
Its just my hands were bound by chains
As we grew ever older


I know this may be all for none
You may have triumphed over your lands
Trampled serpents at your feet
Ground enemies to sand
But if you feel your candle shiver
In the dark and angry night
Just cast an honest glance my way
I’ll join you in the fight...
Little Sister I miss you
