Lyrics:
This song tells the story of a young witch who was buried alive by her father near the Loon Lake Cemetery, in Minnesota. Anyone who would disturb the grave was doomed to a prompt death.
'Forgive me father, for I have sinned
I'm a child of the air, I'm a witch of the wind...
And I'm still wide awake'
Mary Jane!
From the earth, up through the trees
I can hear her calling me
Her voice rides on the breeze
Oh, it's haunting me
No, can't get away
No, there's no escape (I'm going crazy)
If I know I'm going crazy
I must not be insane
(Ooh, hoo hoo)
Beware, my friends, as you pass by
As you are now, so once was I
As I'm now, so you must be
Prepare, my friends, to follow me
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
I'm a child of the air, I'm a witch of the wind
Fingers gripped around my brain
No control, my mind is lame
I'm in the astral plane, and I'll never be the same
Never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never
Beware, my friends, as you pass by
As you are now, so once was I
As I'm now, so you must be
Prepare, my friends, to follow me
It hurts so bad
I can't breathe
Prepare to follow me
