Cast No Shadow

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"
