You and me buddy
We’ll fly in the night
Peek into windows
Just for the fright
Skip across barn roofs
And float one the breeze
Hide out in bed sheets
On Halloween
And oh oh oh
At least we are never alone
The day
Gave us up
But the night will always be home
You and me buddy
I know now instead
That I’m better with no bones
I’m more alive dead
And there’s no more tomorrow
We’ve only got now
No more empty worries
To furrow our brow
You and me buddy
Tonight we will hide
Among trick or treaters
Maybe go for a ride
Stare out the window
At the town where we live
Steal gravestones from graveyards
And candy from kids

My turn to speak and you won't interrupt me 'cause it'll be so loud you can't hear yourself think
All of the pressure and all of the strain, someone should've stopped it before it went down the drain
Live wire, rapid fire, you waited too long now the situation's dire
One wrong move and you're playing my game, oh like it or not you'll all remember my name
Motive Unknown we say to you
A shard of glass that you see right through
Motive Unknown the headlines read
As evidence lay at our feet
Oh the thrill, the thrill of the kill, you'd only understand if you were in my shoes
They ask: "What are you hungry for and what's your motive?" I'm taking what's mine and I'm fucking explosive
Don't play victim don't you dare act confused, I've always been down you it's your turn to lose
This time it's different, this time we feel, this time we connect, this time it's real
Motive Unknown we say to you
A shard of glass that you see right through
Motive Unknown the headlines read
As evidence lay at our feet

Ghost man, show me how
You move my stuff around
And open doors
Breaking all the glass,
And knocking over things
As I pass
And when I come home
I see you in the window
Then you're gone
You wish I could stay
To freak me out all day
I need to move away
I can't imagine how lonely
You are
It's been so long
Something like a hundred years
You've been alone
Must be so hard
Scaring off everyone
You come to meet
Hey, ghost man, tell me how
You feel when I'm around
You wish I could stay
To freak me out all day
I need to move away
Can't imagine how lonely
I think I will stay
And keep you company
We can hang all day
So you won't be so lonely
After all

Everyone’s disappeared, but I’m still cutting the grass
Taking care of biz as usual
I don’t have a clue what really happened to all of you
I woke up one day and all that remained was silence and some blood stains
Frantically, I checked out all the houses on our street
But no one came to meet me at their door
So, I looked into the sky and wondered “why’d you leave me here alone”?
The clouds took the shape of a horrible face, and I swear I heard it laugh
Well, that just made me mad, so I walked home and took a nap
Expecting this insanity to pass
Eventually, I came to see this isn’t just a crazy dream
And here I am, it’s been 6 months, and my chores are all done
So I’m packing up some things, I’m heading out on the road
I hope I’m not the only one alive
And right before my eyes, a misty mountain rises high
A passage opens as I drive into the looming mountain side
And now I’m barely real, I think someone else is at the wheel
Why did I come to a halt and what’s that pounding in my brain?
I’m reaching for my shotgun as my head explodes in pain
And now I’m stumbling aimlessly around this bloody maze
And now I’m in the tunnel with some things I can’t explain
Someone’s scrambling towards me, I can see their glowing eyes
“One more step, and I’ll blow you straight to hell”
Wait a minute now, my body’s floating up to somewhere else
And there’s my wife, and that’s my kid… so this is where they went…

a cup and string
from you to me
a voice called out
from beyond a dream
where monsters lurk
and canaries sing
what did Caroll Spinney dress as
when it was Halloween?
from sixty-nine
to twenty-eighteen
you took us all
under your wing
we didn't have to know
what it all means
what did Caroll Spinney dress as
when it was Halloween?
they can calm our fears
with thorazine
what did Caroll Spinney dress as
when it was Halloween?

When you are fast asleep they crawl into your darkest dreams.
Withering all your rights, controlling what goes inside.
Don't Let Them Take Your Soul.
Don't Let Them Take Your Body.

Laying on my kitchen floor again,
home alone again.
Blowing smoke into the cabinets,
thinking that'll hide it.
Maybe I'm a magnet -
to cannabis filled mind entanglement.
Maybe devil's advocate.
I'm scared and I can't put word to word
on how I prefer to sometimes live life
in a blur.
I'm an amateur, yet entrepreneur
of connoisseurs with no regrets.

Anythings - Heart Attack
04:42

a grave mistake out in the meadow
how could you know that you had caught a beast?
i played the part, a proper fellow
you wrapped yourself in me
i readied for the feast
i like my magic black
and my edges sharp
i'm just a heart attack
swallowed up in the darkest arts
you saw the claws grow from my fingers
you heard me horny for the harvest moon
i tried to hide my fangs and stingers
my fears were far from few
the curse i gave to you
i like my magic black
and my edges sharp
i'm just a heart attack
swallowed up in the darkest arts
i didn't mean to bite
give you such a fright
i'm just a heart attack
better run
i'm racing for the trees
you're safe away from me
maybe when i'm a ghost
we'll hold each other close

Bilge - Hexenzeit

The sun goes down
Dark fills your eyes
The hour is late
Sein Hexenzeit
Auf old ways
A longtime pact
Drei wir singen
Hexenssabbat
Just calm yourself
And take a breath
It's only the veil of death
Beruhige dich
Und atme durch
Est ist nur ein a hirsch
Ich gebe meine seele
Ich nehme dein herz
O-Oh-O
Just strike a match
O-Oh-O
And count to ten
O-Oh-O
Then blow it out
O-Oh-O
Invite them in
A bond of three
On a star of five
Just chant the words
Sein hexenzeit

I've seen you undress
Duck out of the way
You hide from them
Sneer in dismay
You handle the stress
Perched in your nest
Felt your veins quiver
Felt the pulse
Molecular
From within
Ive watched you change
Dissappear
Change Happens
You shifted
I can't explain
I'll get used to it
You turned and it burns
You turned and it burns
Moon at the center
When you enter
Change Happens
You shifted
I can't explain
I'll get used to it

A house in my head
Digesting till I'm dead
A house in my head
Always hungry and always fed

I am a man and I'm made out of mud
And I wake up every morning to a cold indifferent sun
And I die a little day inside
I die a little day inside
I am a man and I'm made out of mud
And my mind keeps turning toxic as I face the rising sun
My brain it is a demon and it's eating me away
I try to stay alive taking white pills everyday
And in the night there's nowhere I can hide
The moon is no companion to the demons I've inside
My walls of mud are crumbling as I struggle to break free
From the Nightmares, The Demons, and Me
Well I am a man and my mud is crumbling
My everyday is drowning like a castaway at sea
Every time I close my eyes it's trauma that I see
But you only see the smile of the day time mud man me

Alarm Set PM - Hesitant
02:47
|

I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Something's coming for me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
Something's coming for me
A face outside my window
I hand touching my feet
Send some angels over for me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't run away from me
I can't sleep, I can't sleep
I can't run away from me
A fist inside my mirror
Choices must be made
I'm too old to be this afraid

Bermuda Teenager - Mask
04:50

it's too late / i've made some trouble / behind these eyes / and the smell of rubber
it's not lies or deceit / just a defense that i need / the sweet smell of leaves / and anonymity
this is not my body / this is not my street / a nameless face / what a sweet release
i think that you know / the stories we tell / who is the one / ringing the bell?

When the moon is high and the leaves all die
Witches on brooms in the sky
A cold wind whispers in your ear,
“Once again it’s that time of year”
Pumpkin Boy
For the Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
For the Pumpkin Boy
He’ll rise from the earth again
In search for a new friend
He’s all alone, he’s got no home
He’s in the streets where the spirits roam
Pumpkin Boy
He’s the Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
He’s the Pumpkin Boy
Now he lays down to rest his eyes
Back to the dirt from which he’d rise
We’ll meet again don’t worry ‘bout a thing
I’ll water your seeds come next spring
Pumpkin Boy
Goodbye Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
Goodbye Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
Goodbye Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
Goodbye Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
Goodbye Pumpkin Boy
Pumpkin Boy
Goodbye Pumpkin Boy
