Wolf

Unholy Night

Wolf


The mist was thick and cold in the last night of this year 
The sun had all burned out and the church was locked and sealed 
A dark figure staggered at the graves 
The moon hid behind the clouds & darkness slowly spread 
Yeah, an unholy night 
The staggering figure moved like a shadow the church bell started to chime 
In the graves the dead began to writhe and twist their bones 
The wind whispered in the trees along with their wining moans 
The town, so old and tired, was sleeping the night away 
Safely tucked in bed not knowing of any threat 
But peaceful dreams faded to black and the warming fires died 
Grown men shivered in fear and sweat and children woke and up and cried 
Little did the town know of reprisal from the tomb 
The church bell was ringing the raven was singing a song about their doom 
Maybe they shouldn't have left him burned and buried alive 
Maybe they shouldn't have cursed his name and been so sure that he died 
Evil avenger with fire in his hands 
The nasty smell of paraffin oil and fear from the damned 
Soon the curse was back on them and set them all ablaze 
Devouring flames turned groans into ashes 
The smell of death blended with the haze
