Ghosts of Green Hills

Over those green hills
In the forest dark
A place that gives you chills
It's where evil lurks
Unseen eyes are staring
You will hear faint whispering
And the sound of laughter
Just before the slaughter
Coz at once you hear screams
Like when you awake from a dream
As it echoes it's last breath
Before the quiet of death
Playing out the last hours
The souls stuck in here
No proper graves and flowers
Restlessly lingering there
The story goes, or so I hear
A family was wiped out in a night
A father who held his family dear
Was the one who ended the light
He went crazy so they say
It was just an ordinary day
But something was amiss
He gave each one a kiss
He went to get his riffle
Finished them off at the table
Turned the gun on himself
And blew his head in half
The reasons are still unknown
Some say it's just a legend
But if you're there, you ain't alone
At times they even touch your hand
