The Ghoul
There are rumors of a ghoul
Who stalks abandoned places
They say he is never full
And he wears many faces
He can hide in a memory
While you visit a loved ones grave
He can hide in the obituary
Of someone you couldn't save
He can feast on the living
While he is fed by the dead
He can constrict your breathing
If he can get into your head
He can eat away dreams
And leave behind despair
He'll split lips at the seams
To hide that he's there
His games are the worst of all
He'll pretend to be gone
Then laugh as you fall
Then he'll keep feasting on
