Ghoulish

I carved my name into my own tombstone
Lurking below, my form is quite gruesome
I ravenously wait for this night to come at last �
I'll leave a trail of corpses by the time the moon has passed
�
Blood seeps down my teeth �
And falls to the ground beneath
I savor that taste on my lips,
Encrusted at my fingertips
Eyes darting from left to right �
I ignore their screams of fright
I rip and tear off limbs and hair
They trip, so scared, that's it, I'm there
The rest is history, but some too graphic to share
�
Reincarnated cadaver
Paroled from hell for good behavior
Now I'm back to wreak some havoc �
Don't go looking for a savior �
Not even a saint could hold a candle to my malice
I'll give a little taste, come down the rabbit hole like Alice
I'll show you what it means to flip your morals upsidedown
Take pleasure in the death, the pain, the chaos all around
�
I dwell in the deep �
Under the soil is where I sleep
Until I claw up to the surface
With a single grisly purpose
Feverishly seeking victims
Frantically, this bleak addiction
Nothing on my mind �
But the scent of your entrails
Other senses blind, �
Except those bent on desperate wails � �
Needing to hear cries
Of those lives soon to be expired
If you don't wish to die �
Suggest you heed this warning dire �
�
