Animal Instinct

Knocking loud some stranger's at my door
Bitter, and brutal, and early to arrive
Singing in winds that Winter is near
Digging in deeper to bury us alive
She's a cold, hungry bitch that will freeze you to the bone
Frostbite and gangrene will never let you go
Twenty feet of snow and our supplies are gone
I seek the new hunger guided by my tongue

Forlorn Hope has disappeared into the white
Waving goodbye as we feast upon the hides
Days from now we'll be chewing on the ice
But the long for human flesh is now stronger than for mice
Such pain and misery I endured that day
Is beyond description I heard the Donner say
Starvation brings to slaughter our familial bonds
Civility absconded with the innocence at the taste

I'll surely hang for hunting my family
But I never really did see a spider swing

Tangled
In the web it wove

Strangled
In the web it wove

Dead
In the web it wove
