Lyrics

In the still of night when the moon’s aglow shadows dance and secrets grow

Little feet on cobblestone laughter rings through the air
But beware the whispers born in shadows a chill fills the air
Candies wrapped in temptations there’s a twinkle in their eyes
Demons roam the corners, hiding beneath the skies

How sweet the treats they silently offer so bright so bold
They beckon little lost souls whispering takes untold

Run run can’t you see shapes in the dark are watching thee
The cobwebs weave a web of fright where children vanish from the night
Dancing shadows echoes loud soft disguises in the crowd
Beware the deadly Halloween where innocence turns to scream

Day drag on the town is hushed seeking children lost from sight
Parents call their voices breaking under the dim street light
They search the houses alleyways every corner hold despair
And in the silence dread now thickens fills the autumn air

No laughs rings no joyful calls the streets are dark and bare
The lanterns flicker on empty porches haunted unaware
Did they heed the candy’s call or were they lured away
Into the shadows they drifted soft lost in the devil’s play

Run, run can’t you see shapes in the dark are watching thee
The cobwebs weave a web fright where children vanish from the night
Dancing shadows echoes loud soft disguises in the crowd
Beware the deadly Halloween where innocence turns to scream

The town now wears a somber shroud their hearts heavy with dread
For in the window shadows shift and hope begins to shed
The demons laugh their feast begins as night consumes the day
Echoes linger tales of woe where innocence can’t stay

Honor the dead as the saying goes remember those who roam the earth
But keep your children close and near for the shadows hide their worth
In the darkened corners of your street whispers still abide
On Halloween the veil grows thin where lost souls try to hide
