Deep Creek

A story told for a thousand years about a place not far from here
The trees are thick the air is cold
A creature haunts

The moonlight
Ten feet tall
Eyes of fire burning bright
Awful stench
Garbage and rotting flesh
Listen here
A story is told tonight
Say a prayer
Now learn a lesson in fright
Monster
Living in deep creek
Monster
Hunting in deep creek
Monster
Killing in deep creek
Monster
It was autumn of '76
Winter creeping up oh so close
As fast as the time clock ticks
Pacific northwest mountain range
Ten feet tall
Eyes of fire burning bright
Awful stench
Garbage and rotting flesh
Listen here
A story is told tonight
Say a prayer
Now learn a lesson in fright
Monster
Living in deep creek
Monster
Hunting in deep creek
Monster
Killing in deep creek
Monster

Not hard to tell what happened next
3 Am almost ready for rest
The only warmth is the fires glow
Then a scream like none you've heard
It was the best from the trees
Getting louder with every breath
Nothing human could be that fast
Was it a monster from the past
It it a monster from the past
It was the monster from deep creek
It was a monster from the past
It was the monster from deep creek

Ten feet tall
Eyes of fire burning bright
Awful stench
Garbage and rotting flesh
Listen here
A story is told tonight
Say a prayer
Now learn a lesson in fright
Had to run
Run so fast
What was this thing that was after us
So close to death that the night felt like home
Had to run
Run so fast
What was this thing that was after us

So close to death that the night felt like home
So close to death that the night felt like home
So close to death that the night felt like home
So close to death that the night felt like home
