Brown Bird Cast No Shadow Lyrics
Cast No Shadow by Brown Bird
I woke up
Despite my head
To see the trail I blazed last night with the words I said
Still she laid there in the charred and smoking wake of fears I fed
Then she got up
To look around
Muttered words I'd never heard a human sound
Then from her hair grew forty serpents
From her eyes a fiery shroud
From her mouth came forty voices and I heard them cry aloud...
I tried my best
To calm her down
There wasn't any of her left but evil now
I cast a spell, a stone, a tranquilizing needle and a prayer
She grabbed me by the bones and shook my flesh and said I swear
The sun won't cast no shadow anymore
The willows never weep
And the wind will never moan
Now she is gone
I don't know how
Not even sure just where it is I am right now
There's only darkness and the absence of any air that I can breath
I could've sworn that I was warned but how could anyone believe
The sun won't cast no shadow anymore
The willows never weep
And the wind will never moan
Despite my head
To see the trail I blazed last night with the words I said
Still she laid there in the charred and smoking wake of fears I fed
Then she got up
To look around
Muttered words I'd never heard a human sound
Then from her hair grew forty serpents
From her eyes a fiery shroud
From her mouth came forty voices and I heard them cry aloud...
I tried my best
To calm her down
There wasn't any of her left but evil now
I cast a spell, a stone, a tranquilizing needle and a prayer
She grabbed me by the bones and shook my flesh and said I swear
The sun won't cast no shadow anymore
The willows never weep
And the wind will never moan
Now she is gone
I don't know how
Not even sure just where it is I am right now
There's only darkness and the absence of any air that I can breath
I could've sworn that I was warned but how could anyone believe
The sun won't cast no shadow anymore
The willows never weep
And the wind will never moan
