📝 Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
Tell me, tell me, have you heard?
Of the skeleton, herald of doom?
Awakened from eternal slumber,
leaving ruin in lands yonder?

[Chorus]
Lock your doors and bar your halls,
hide thy young and heed the calls.
If bone and blood come to town,
pray it leaves us all alone.

[Verse 2]
Tell me, tell me, have you seen fewer beasts?
Ravenous as they were, always ready to feast.
Many of their bodies now litter the ground,
torn and desecrated, guts scattered around.

[Chorus]
Lock your doors and bar your halls,
hide thy young and heed the calls.
If bone and blood come to town,
pray it leaves us all alone.

[Verse 3]
Tell me, tell me, know the raiders’ faith?
A whole warband fell to a skeleton wraith.
The camp lay ruined, broken and burned,
their bodies torn apart, or so we learned.

[Bridge]
Still… some say the fires burned cold,
and none were slain who weren't already bold.
A whispered thought among us folk,
soft praise that never dared be spoke.

[Chorus]
They claim it’s rotten to the core,
from sinew stretched to bone.
A black knight from wars long gone,
cursed to walk alone.

[Verse 4]
Passed by tongue, as rare as it sounds,
when all was done, safety returned to towns.
Perhaps not a mindless minion?
A thought too grim — a frightful opinion.

[Outro]
Ah well, just tales to pass the night,
songs grow darker by firelight.
Fill your cups and sing once more —
whatever truth walked through that door.
