Tonight

Welcome to the land of gloom
of shadows, mist, and shades
The sky is overcast tonight
No stars will light your way
The trees, like rotting corpses
Stand so still, their skin so grey
The bleak and black are out tonight
Till light comes they shall stay
And haunt the hills and piney heaths
Like wights and geists of old
The shadow folk are out tonight
Amidst the winter cold
They dance along the sides of roads
They whisper through the trees
The ones who lived before us now
Are felt on chilly breeze
