Curse the night beneath leaden skies
Where moonlight shines in darkened eyes
And talons sharp honed to a point
To tear your skin with blood anoint
To feast upon such ravaged flesh
That once the local vicar blessed
And rain shall fall like tears long shed
Releasing memories in your head
To live and yet be seen as dead
When eyes transform from grey to red
Come forth and let your screams begin
You are defeated cannot win
They seek your soul and speak of sin
They hunt with torches it begins
What do they know of past times gone
Stood at the graveside sombre song
Taken beneath the castle wall
A lesson learned but not by all
Now legend speaks off fang and fur
Of bloodied footprints tangled hair
This curse I carry to the grave
A silver bullet do I crave
Now all is still and night is gone
But fearful dreams they linger on
This ballad then a werewolf dirge
On full moon nights this do I urge
Beware the dark for deep within
There lurks a demon bent on sin
The sun is high the grass is green
A bloody trail where hell has been
So till the next time with moon up high
Seek out the mirror then ask why
Your features seem much thinner yet
You turn away wish to forget
The beast within you is denied
For from yourself you cannot hide
They know, it’s said they seek me now
What do I say to run but how
I curse that day I was struck down
Reborn and cursed on unhallowed ground
