Halloween

Siouxsie & The Banshees

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



The carefree days

are distant now

I wear my memories like a shroud

I try to speak but words collapse

Echoing

"Trick or Treat"

"Trick or Treat"

The bitter and the sweet



I wander though your sadness

gazing at you with scorpion eyes

Halloween......Halloween



A sweet reminder

in the ice-blue nursery

of a childish murder

of hidden lustre

and she cries

"Trick or Treat"

"Trick or Treat"

The bitter and the sweet



I wander through your sadness

gazing at you with scorpion eyes

Halloween......Halloween
