There is a candle burning in the dead of night Shining brighter than any other light The smell of wild fills the air Leaving the towns people without a care A starry night fills the woods around Leaving nothing but quiet for this town A cabin of wood sits on a hill Leaving everything and everyone standing still The town peaceful, but full of secrets That only the residents could truly see it The visitors that came by, could never believe How such a small town can be so full of grief What's there to cry about in a peaceful town? A place with no laws or rules that bound When voyagers enter, they feel at home They do not know what is a stake in modern Rome The people so stagnant stare on with blank faces Waiting for the visitors to feel their silent graces The people of this town have seen so many bleed So many vanished to the works of creed And in every citizen is a little guilt For the evil motives on which the town was built For when a group of tourists stay in the cabin on the hill to sleep They do not know that tourists is that on which the towns people *feed
