The Preacher Came To Town - Darkwoods My Betrothed
A peaceful town down by the lake
A cradle of goodness
And righteousness it was said
Quite prosperous one might add
Rye fields cattle
And the riches of the lake
Fallacious was their dormancy of shelter
Blindfolded had they themselves
With the shadow of the cross
This dormancy lasted until a dusk in August
A preacher came handsome enough
To wet any lady
He was greeted with warmth and friendliness
Though a bit of jealousy
Showed on the looks of the men
Nobody wondered
Why he spoke no words of god
And his eyes were
Glued to women's bodies
Nobody simply paid any attention to it
Especially the women
Enchanted by his attractiveness
Until one day the paint on
The church walls began to crumble
The crop festered
And the cattle began to die
The wives disappeared just before midnight
Only return before the first rays of sunrise
It began to show
At the end of the month
The crop and the cattle dead
Ground frozen famine awaited
Vanished was the atmosphere
Of honesty and good will
People became wary of each other
For anybody could have
Evoked this curse upon them
