The Curse of the Gila Monster

[Verse 1] In the desert's heat A Gila monster crawls With venom in its veins It strikes without a pause (ooh-yeah) Witchcraft in the air A curse that won't be lifted A crumbling castle Where darkness has been gifted [Intense guitar solo] [Pre-chorus] A hellish landscape Desolate and cold A soldier of misfortune With stories left untold (ooh-yeah) [build] [Chorus] Gila monster Creature of the night (oh-oh-oh) Hear the screams echo through the pale moonlight (screams) Crumbling castle A haunting nighmare (oh-oh-oh) In this desolate land Where souls are left for dead (souls are left for dead) [Verse] In the depths of the night Where shadows roam free Children of darkness We dance with the devil (devil, yeah) Feeding the lizard with witches and sin Fear is our weapon It's the world we live in [drum solo] [Bridge] The moon is our guide Illuminating our path Lost souls gather Seeking solace in the dark (dark, yeah) We wear our scars like badges of honor In this twisted realm We embrace the horror [Chorus] Gila monster Creature of the night (oh-oh-oh) Hear the screams echo through the pale moonlight (screams) Crumbling castle A haunting nighmare (oh-oh-oh) In this desolate land Where souls are left for dead (souls are left for dead) [Bridge] The moon is our guide Illuminating our path Lost souls gather Seeking solace in the dark (dark, yeah) We wear our scars like badges of honor In this twisted realm We embrace the horror [Chorus] Gila monster Creature of the night (oh-oh-oh) Hear the screams echo through the pale moonlight (screams) Crumbling castle A haunting nighmare (oh-oh-oh) In this desolate land Where souls are left for dead (souls are left for dead) [Chorus] Gila monster Creature of the night (oh-oh-oh) Hear the screams echo through the pale moonlight (screams) Crumbling castle A haunting nighmare (oh-oh-oh) In this desolate land Where souls are left for dead (souls are left for dead) [Fading outro] [Solo vocal outro] Our souls are prisoners of the spite Endless purgatory Will Gila monster set us free tonight
