To Cast The Mourning Shadow
Epicurean

And when the rain came down

Over the hills and through this valley

The midnight moon shined down on me

Illuminating all that shimmers in this place


I haven't spoken since it happened

Words turn to dust in my mouth

By tonight bring solace


To cast the mourning shadow


But I still see her face

Every moment that I'm awake

I haven't spoken since it happened

Words turn to dust in my mouth

By tonight bring solace


Was it the impact that broke her body?

While I sat beside unscathed

The windshield shattered from the concussion

The class scorched my face that burned so


I held her head by the roadside

And wiped the blood from her face

The words that sent from her mouth

Could only keep me silent

And with the breath of those words aside

Her last tear touched the pavement


I pulled her close to my chest

To hear her heart beat faster

Her trembling voice cut through me


Will I make it through this night?

I tried to conjure an answer

But my tongue had frozen


My love, the source of my yearning

Not long for this world

I sat blindly as she slipped away

And died in my arms

The aroma of gas still soaked in my clothes

And blood not of my own


Now at this moment, my body went numb

All life's red lust was gone

It all dies with her that night

All of my sins, all of my soul

All I'd given won't gain control, yet I know

All of my fears become one


And within this tragedy

I know life's fragility burn

That nothing remains unbroken

And forever is a myth that liars have spoken


Dark unfolding, cast the shadow over me

Bleak unfolding, cast the shadow of us all


To cast the mourning shadow

To cast the mourning shadow
