We came in this world together[00:03:44]

Legs wrapped around each other[00:03:44]

My cheek against my sister's[00:03:44]

We were born like tangled vines[00:03:44]

And we lived along the river[00:03:44]

Where the black clouds never linger[00:03:44]

And the sunlight spread like honey[00:03:44]

Through my sister's tiny hands[00:03:44]

But while picking sour apples[00:03:44]

In the wild waving grasses[00:03:44]

Sister stumbled in the brier[00:03:44]

And was bitten by a snake[00:03:44]

Every creature casts a shadow[00:03:44]

Under the sun's golden fingers[00:03:44]

And as the sun sinks past the waving grass[00:03:44]

Some shadows are dragged along[00:03:44]

So alone I took to drinking[00:03:44]

Bottles of cheap whiskey[00:03:44]

And I staggered through the backwoods[00:03:44]

Killing snakes with a sharpened stick[00:03:44]

Oh but still I heard her laughing[00:03:44]

In the wild waving grasses[00:03:44]

Still her tiny hands went splashing[00:03:44]

At the river's sparkling shore[00:03:44]

So I took my rusty gas can[00:03:44]

And an old iron shovel[00:03:44]

And I set the woods to blaze[00:03:44]

And choked the river up with stones[00:03:44]

Every creature casts a shadow[00:03:44]

Under the sun's golden fingers[00:03:44]

And as the sun sinks past the waving grass[00:03:44]

Some shadows are dragged along[00:03:44]
