Halloween

The night is still and the frost it bites my face I wear my silence like a mask and murmur like a ghost Trick or treat, trick or treat, the bitter and the sweet Trick or treat, trick or treat, the bitter and the sweet The carefree days are distant now I wear my memories like a shroud I try to speak but words collapse, echoing, echoing Trick or treat, trick or treat, the bitter and the sweet Trick or treat, trick or treat, the bitter and the sweet I wander though your sadness Gazing at you with scorpion eyes Halloween, Halloween Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh A sweet reminder in the ice-blue nursery Of a childish murder of hidden luster and she cries Trick or treat, trick or treat, the bitter and the sweet Trick or treat, trick or treat, the bitter and the sweet I wander through your sadness Gazing at you with scorpion eyes Halloween, Halloween Halloween, Halloween Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
