[Intro]
Dark whispers dance beneath the moonlight’s glow
Shadowed horns and fangs begin to show
Krampus stir, in the night they creep
Roaming streets where secrets keep
[Verse 1]
In the cold, on the silent winter’s breath
He comes to summon, brings your fears to death
With twisted chains and bells that chime
He’s the nightmare in holiday rhyme
Misbehaving children, beware the call
He’s the shadow that watches all
Half goat, half demon in the night’s embrace
Horns high, casting a darker grace
[Pre-Chorus]
Whispered tales in icy breath
Of a creature born of myth and dread
Darkened eyes in swirling snow
Krampus’s wrath begins to grow
[Chorus]
Krampusnacht, shadows of fear
Horns and chains, the dark draws near
Beneath the bells, the devil’s roar
Punishment for those who ignore
Krampus, the night’s dark keeper
Fear the beast, the midnight reaper
In the silence, hear him squeal
A haunting gift from the dark heel
[Bridge]
Chains rattle, bells collide
Spirit of dark winter’s tide
Dragging shadows through the snow
Where the coldest winds do blow
In his eyes, the fear’s alive
In his roar, the stories thrive
Krampus’s shadow, dark and deep
Guardian of the night’s dark sleep
[Outro]
So beware when December’s chill descends
Krampus prowls, the dark amends
A hero? No, a feared foe’s might
Guiding children through the night
Dark and divine, the season’s test
Krampus’s shadow, woven into rest
