Yard of the Undead

Demented trees exist outside the house The frightening house of the cursed demons Red fire skin, with some black char on their face They love Halloween as they are heathens The trees bend and creek in odd and strange ways Seemingly dead as they’re bare without leaves Screams are sometimes heard deep inside the house None should dare to enter for they’ll just grieve The full moon hides behind some eerie clouds Seemingly made to make the night darker And the dead rise, they roam the land outside Don’t enter or you’ll find your grave marker The yard has the undead wanting to kill Wanting to take out your scared heart to eat You must get away from this horrid place Keeping your eyes open on this night beat
