Ghoul

Quickly I move through the forest Late into the night Smell of fresh blood on the air It won’t escape me for long I’ll taste the flesh soon As the body dies And I’ll gorge upon the blood As the life drains from the eyes And I stalk the woods at night In a permanent living hell The man I once was is gone And what is left is starving I’m addicted to the beating hearts Of those left still alive And I hunger for their flesh and blood With everything I am And I set upon the victim In ecstasy and wanting Her screams in agony As her flesh is ripped apart She dies in horror To feed me and my brethren And it’s all for naught For we’re immediately ravenous once again
