Fires of the Forgotten

[Intro:Soft fire crackle, distant owls, eerie wind] [*Whispered voice*] “Gather ‘round… the night is young… but beware…” [Verse] We gather ‘round the firelight, shadows stretch and sway, Old tales awaken, whispering the night away. The wind it moans, the branches creak, something stirs unseen, Hearts pound in rhythm, caught between the dark and dream. [Pre-Chorus] We thought the woods were safe tonight, But fear creeps in with every flickering light… [Chorus] Damn it! We lost track of time! The marshmallows are black, too bitter to bite! The true nightmare of this night! We came to shiver, now our treats are charred! [Verse] The story grows, the shadows dance, eyes wide with fright, Every snap and rustle pulls us deeper into night. We clutch our sticks, our snacks decay, the flames hiss and spit, In this haunted forest, even sweetness is counterfeit. [Pre-Chorus] Whispers echo closer now, we can’t ignore the dread, The fire flickers faster, and the tales crawl into our heads… [Chorus] Damn it! We lost track of time! The marshmallows are black, too bitter to bite! The true nightmare of this night! We came to shiver, now our treats are charred! [Bridge:Heavy drums, suspenseful strings, fire crackling louder] The night surrounds, a chilling laugh… shadows start to play, Our horror story tangled in the smoky haze. And in the darkest corner of the flame-lit ground, The burnt remains of sweetness scream without a sound… [Chorus:Final, Epic] Damn it! We lost track of time! The marshmallows are black, too bitter to bite! The true nightmare of this night! We came to shiver, now our treats are charred! [Outro:Fire dies down, wind sighs, distant owl hoots] [*Whispered voice fading*] “The real terror… isn’t in the shadows… it’s in what you left behind…”
