Devoured

Eater of human flesh; creature of the night
;You are what we warn our kids about
High and mighty, stationed at the Canadian interior; you are unavoidable
Campers and hikers watch your step, if you want to remain alive
Wandering alone at night, you're the most vulnerable; this is how the creature survives
A ghost of what it used to be, an empty shell of hate
Listen to me and watch your step; listen before it's too late
