The somber glow of autumn kissed the sky
And bled across the fading green hillside
The children tended dreams of innocence
As heaven blazed in fiery descent

Surviving light that led them to the site
Submitted to immortal will of night
The warmth had fled from curiosity
And chilled the air
With presence of the being

Was it a star born visitor
Or just the imagination?
Was it a trick of misplaced light
Or an interplanetary visitation?
Was it mass hysteria that felt the being glide
Across the heart of flatwoods' darkest night?

Seared into these hills
His scars have left no explanation
As quick as stardust fell
Then drifted to another destination
A monster in the mist
Or just a ship lost from formation?
Regardless, left a legend with duration

Was it a star born visitor
Or just the imagination?
Was it a trick of misplaced light
Or an interplanetary visitation?
Was it mass hysteria
That felt the being glide
Across the heart of flatwoods' darkest night?

Was it a star born visitor
Or just the imagination?
Was it a trick of misplaced light
Or an interplanetary visitation?
Was it warfare in the skies
That brought down half his tribe
Across the heart of flatwoods' darkest night?
