We Only Are

A moonlight city
drowns in blood
the beasts are on the prowl.

In the distance
a woman sings
somber melodies above the howls.

This is the street
we all must walk
stray not from the path.

For if you do
in the dark you\'ll face
many a beast\'s wrath.

Better yet
to stay inside
for it is surely safe.

After all
we only are
the monsters of our estate.
