Lowland Hum - Four Sisters: Part One lyrics

One sister walks the wasteland Never found a way in Hunger and thirst Pale-faced curses Fell from full lips again Who has a soul that's not fainting? Who has a soul that's not faint? Use your voice Another sets up shop in a blackout Huddled in the dark corners She hates the word of healing Spitting on wisdom So now its hard labor Where is the friend of the stubborn? Who will shatter the bars of iron? Use your voice With her ear inclined and her aching eyelids Her little neck so tender The echo came back with a different timbre An octave remembered A substance delivered A city to dwell in Use your voice
