The Devil's Gorge

Shun the swamp, shun the dark
Don't walk astray
The friar's lanterns flickering lights
Will lead you off your way.

The souls of the departed
At night they haunt the moor
Wail like wraiths in the woods
Sepulchral chant obscure.

The devil's gorge, fathomless black pit
The devil's gorge, sanctum God forbid.

Mires of no life, dwellers with no soul
Tumble through the white dead trees
Towards the baneful hole.

Morass of lurking horrors
Place that must not be
Cries of anguish echo
Horrors unforeseen.

The devil's gorge, fathomless black pit
The devil's gorge, sanctum God forbid.

The gaping orifice reveals the pathaway to the womb
Stare into the abyss and it gazes into you.

Skin as pale as moonlight
Teeth as sharp as diamond shards
Creatures from beyond
Blackest minds and vilest hearts.

Shuddering you turn away
Too late to close your eyes
A glimpse into sheer direness
Unleash your own demise.

The devil's gorge, fathomless black pit
The devil's gorge, sanctum God forbid.
