Cast No Shadow Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Give me a place to stand
And I shall move the world
Deep down all men are mad
As the mist begins to swirl

[Pre-Chorus]
It was only a shadow
The shade around your neck
It was only a shadow
You cannot spare the wretched from the wreck

[Chorus]
Where did eyes fall below us in the night?
Demon fire
Now we're cursing the moon-lit sky

[Verse 2]
In daylight I don't dream
At night there's only grief
I pitied all your bleeding hearts
But love you because they bleed

[Pre-Chorus]
I am only a shadow
The chain around your neck
I am only a shadow
A mystery to life and death

[Chorus]
Where did eyes fall below us in the night?
Demon fire
Jagged lines
Of the tower, you and I
Cursing the moon-lit sky

Ohhh, ohhhh
Ohhh, ohhhh

[Verse 3]
There's something
In the wind
That sounds and looks and tastes like death
These spirits
Unliving
I feel their breath or was it-

[Pre-Chorus]
Only a shadow
Who do I walk among-
Is it only a shadow?
So look upon a life gone wrong
Now what have I become?

[Chorus]
Where did eyes fall below us in the night?
Demon fire
Jagged lies
Of the tower, you and I
Cursing the moon-lit sky

[Outro]
Softer eyes
All around us open wide
Paralyzed
Stars aligned
Like a vampire we'll deny
Casting no shadow

I believe this song is written after the classic novel, Dracula. In their bio on Spotify, it states that during the 2020 lockdowns, Jim Roach started sending Dan these songs, and Dan started writing lyrics inspired by the novels he was reading, specifically Dracula.
