Mary’s Little Lamb of Shadows

Intro Mary had a little lamb Black as midnight, cold as sand Everywhere that Mary bled The little lamb was there, unfed Verse 1 Its eyes were hollow, burning coal It feasted slowly on her soul It followed close, it followed near It fed on whispers, hate, and fear Chorus Mary’s little lamb of shadows Follows through the graveyard meadows Every step, the earth decays Every prayer is set ablaze Verse 2 She tried to run, she tried to hide But the lamb was always at her side Its wool was soaked in crimson rain Its mouth was filled with cries of pain Chorus Mary’s little lamb of shadows Follows through the graveyard meadows Every step, the earth decays Every prayer is set ablaze Bridge No light escapes, no angels sing The lamb devours everything Its lullaby is claws and teeth A cradle carved from bones beneath Final Chorus Mary’s little lamb of shadows Dances where the black wind blows Every step, the world will fall Mary’s lamb consumes it all Outro Mary had a little lamb… It followed her into the dark… Forever.
