Distant, but the recollection grows many miles, but closer still the memory Grey shadows lurking that sweep and carve through moonlit night Now fall in my semi-conscious panged regression Ravenous jaws agape-claws protrude the sward Denizens of the forest baring teeth and snarl Starving eyes aglow, piercing through thickening mist to see the game at bay Watching the gate, in wait like prey For broken stillness from the shaded thick Since witnessing the infants slain Watching from a distance in helpless horror far away Side by side, unhallowed stride Ten thousand miles wide Though hunger burns in all things, it's conquest burning these Apologies dead for drive Fleeing the scene, fleeing the scene, I could hear them sing With dead breath of relished flesh, we serenade the night With scabbed claw we deadly aggressors stalk the land in search of more No one at all escapes this plague, this decimation Running till death, set free, roaming-no one will stop it Moving from town through country viciously to the next Our town, now I'm found surrounded As if on command-a snarl, a twitch-they frenzy flood for early pick Reserve an inch, an arm, the head, secure a claw hold, tooth niche Blood squirts and drips black oozing slicks from skull born holes to licking, lapping lips Shredded skin unzipped, sacks of organs spill The sickening sound of crunching, breaking ribs Crawl helpless child, mutilated and disfigured Dismantled in an instant, landscapes are re-carved Buried under bodies, left in a decomposing field to rot I lie awake, though strength is drained as pooling blood collects near severed limbs And visions stain my wounded brain of the horror brought when the wolves came into town Fatigue, like flocks of ravens, dispels-replaced by fear Wailing howls fill the sky Fleeing the scene, fleeing the scene, I could hear them sing With dead breath of relished flesh, we serenade the night With scabbed claw we deadly aggressors stalk the land in search of more Where prey is found, I will be found Alarming numbers howling the sound The dead breath serenade We stalk the land in search of more
