*\[read these words out loud, your voice gives them power\]*

what happened to you wendigo  
which way didn't the winda blow?  
to scratch you out so apropos  
wendigo wendigo where do you go  
when your all alone and need some time

oh mothman mothman we miss you so   
was there a mothlady, where'd she go?  
little mothbabies lost in the snow  
what happened mothman and wendigo?  
when your all alone and need some time

where is your cross my bloody mary?  
or were you mary not quite contrary  
flipping burgers at all the wendys  
drowning in seas of hail maries  
when your all alone and need some time

who lost you wendigo  
mary and mothman, no  
sequins no sewed lines  
but in the pines, all is fine  
seein' flickers of cyans  
travel worn, strong of mind  
still as an ageless wine  
when your all alone and you start to cry  
beautiful yet lost creature  
with the dark all around the eyes  
take me captive, set me free  
redemption and fire and all that noise  
and yet there is no more noise  
no more noise  
no more noise  
what happened to you wendigo?  
when did you go...
