Whispers in the Cornfield

[Verse] Beneath the western moonlit skies, where shadows twist and twine, There's a whisper in the cornfield, from a world beyond our time. It speaks of ancient secrets, dark as midnight's silent shroud, Of a force that stirs in silence, neither humble nor too proud. [Verse 2] Farmers till their land by day, at dusk they lock their doors, To keep at bay the creeping dread that crawls from distant shores. Old tales from grandpappy's youth, of eyes that see through night, Of an eldritch deity's hunger, devouring all in sight. [Chorus] Oh, the stars above are trembling, in a sky profound and void, With the weight of madness so sublime, it's destiny deployed. An ancient hunger rising, swallowing the day, When the eldritch god awakens, taking all light away. [Verse 3] By the flicker of the campfire, old stories come alive, Of forgotten towns and empty fields where nothing now survives. An insatiable darkness, it devours all we’ve sown, From homestead porch to woods so deep, we face it all alone. [Bridge] Mothers clutch their children tight, no prayer will keep them safe, For when the unseen darkness comes, it leaves no soul, no trace. The cattle low, the dogs grow fierce, sensing doom's advance, Of an eldritch power ancient, in a dark forgotten dance. [Chorus] Oh, the stars above are trembling, in a sky profound and void, With the weight of madness so sublime, it's destiny deployed. An ancient hunger rising, swallowing the day, When the eldritch god awakens, taking all light away.
