Shadow Over You
Talk to me
Creosote poisons
Rattlesnakes bite
And the white bird sings
In the night
There’s a hollow in the night
Following the footsteps
Your eyes are cryptic
You got a shadow over you
I can see your soul
I can see your face
There’s a shadow over you.
Evil is your friend
Circles flat and long
Bring me back to you
There’s a shadow over you
Cooking on the edge of town
Taking children down
You’re all black inside
There’s a shadow over you
You got it all to yourself now
Nothing but ashes
Left to stain the trees
There’s a shadow over you
Black as the night
I can see the circle twisting
As the beer cans hit the ground
There’s a shadow over you
Evil is your friend
You leave them alone
Dead to be found
There’s a shadow over you
Hanging to the ground
Like the shadow on the door
Your soul will be bound to hell
There's a shadow...
