The Shepard's Daughter Songtext
von Bashful Billy

The clutch of fog has released
Birds of Mephistopheles- flocking
Unconfessed
Underdressed
Rather spoilt′ they are, indeed
Imagine the audacity?

I cannot change the way I am
I cannot change the way you are
Our distance and these circumstances
I'll breathe The Ghost into your lungs
Well before the hour′s done
This night is going to live forever

Dancing there in your finery
Surrounded by your crude disciples
I can't bear this wanton deviltry
This power in your blood


Down the Way lies the Truth
And the Life you'll never see
Waiting
Turn the stone. Cleave the Tree
And ye′ will surely find Him there
But ye′ won't find me

I cannot change the thing I am
I cannot change the thing you are
Both victims of our circumstances
I′ll breathe your ghost into my lungs-
Well before this walk is done
This night is going to live forever

Dancing there in your finery
Surrounded by your crude disciples
I can't bear these mocking effigies
This power in your blood commands

Writhing there in your finery
Lost in the thrall of your last cycle
Lo! I hear the third angel trumpeting
This power in your blood commands


Never gonna find
Never gonna find me
No No
Never gonna find
Never gonna find
Never gonna find me
No No
