1735
Deep within the trees
Crying out, Mrs Leeds
Curses child thirteen
Infant suddenly erased
Monster takes its place
Hooves, tail, wings, crooked face
A creature born of hate
Hunted down
Exorcised
Still alive
Paterson to the cape
If it's dark in the woods
Then you know you're not safe from his grasp
Snuff the lights
Run indoors and lock them up tight
Terror statewide
From beyond the pines
In a marsh
It lurks and creeps
This way is death
The devil Leeds
Born forsaken
Evil awakened
Locals are shaken
Afraid and taken
Camden to the coast
The barrens know well
Of the monster it hosts
Only terror waits inside
To prey on our miserable lives
You may think this is just a game
Seek the house if you feel so brave
Face to face with a demon untamed
Just another the forest has claimed
Can not
Be slain
By man nor machine
Patiently waiting
In woods evergreen
No one
Can hear you
Your wails and your screams
Your legs
Will fail you
In utter defeat
This withered place is so diseased
On this world I'll make my mark
And lead you to the grave
Soaked in blood, filled with fear
I am now your devil here
As I burn away the skin and leave you
I can bring the world to its knees
