never been a big fan of Halloween...

lyrics

Sticks and bones don’t touch my stones
nor do they haunt my sleep,
but in the dark, a whispered word
scares me to my feet.
I am the castle,
I am the ghost,
I am the unseen,
and you, you are the guardian of my untapped dreams,
on Halloween…

On Halloween,
on Halloween,
we’ll dance together on Halloween.

Sticks and bones don’t touch my stones
within the shadows deep
I hear the groan of things unknown
and creatures never seen.
I am the witch,
I am the clouds,
I am the wind on which she flies,
and you,
you are the haunted child who never sleeps
on Halloween.

On Halloween,
on Halloween,
on Halloween,
on Halloween.,
we’ll sleep together on Halloween,
we will be lovers on Halloween,
we’ll live forever on Halloween,
and sleep forever on Halloween,
on Halloween…
…I’ll build you up and let you dream)
(I’ll hold you down and make you scream)
(behind a mask, I’ll make you cry)
(no one will see these tears run dry)
(this masquerade will never end)
(and Fear will be your only friend)
(these sticks and bones will enter now)
(and pierce you nights like arrows…
….Like arrows…
