Into a Haunted Forest
I walked into the haunted forest at night
I desire to be alone, to feel the full effect
I don’t know many who would do as I did
Many are fearful of what lies deep within
I desire to be alone, to feel the full effect
It’s quite the journey going at it alone
Many are fearful of what lies deep within
The forest comes alive with all its forces
It’s quite the journey going at it alone
The land sleeps until it’s quite disturbed
The forest comes alive with all its forces
And I secure myself, get ready for the darkness
The land sleeps until it’s quite disturbed
I walk deep within the depths of its core
And I secure myself, get ready for the darkness
What comes out from this darkness disturbs
I walk deep within the depths of its core
Holding my breath knowing something’s coming
What comes out from this darkness disturbs
For ghosts follow and werewolves howl
Holding my breath knowing something’s coming
The inside of the forest comes forward to meet
For the ghosts follow and werewolves howl
They pounce upon me and I feel their presence
The inside of the forest comes forward to meet
An evil collection of creatures dire and unholy
They pounce upon me and I feel their presence
Now I run from the forest, fearful with fright
An evil collection of creatures dire and unholy
I don’t know many who would do as I did
Now I run from the forest, fearful with fright
I walked into the haunted forest at night
