Halloween Hearts

Halloween Hearts

Halloween hearts
Scream Valentines
Secret unheard whispers
Of "will you be mine"

You can count on the silence
To reflect the full moon's light
The night of deathly darkness
The breath of corpses sighs
The dead rise to live
The fog is delicate lace
Falling on the world
Coating every place

Halloween hearts
Scream Valentines
Secret unheard whispers
Of "will you be mine"
Halloween hearts
Leading tortured lives
Screaming through the silence
Agonizing cries

Candles lit on window sills
Burn long past midnight
To lead all of the ghosts back home
Without the gift of sight
We've seen what cant be seen
And know what cant be taught
The whispers in the static
And the shadows wrought

Halloween hearts
Scream Valentines
Snow falling down
The sun refuses to shine
The clouds high above
Make pictures in the sky
The tortured hearts sing
As their dreams fly

And there's an inkling of victory
In times that are soon to come
But Halloween hearts will face defeat
And all will come undone
The darkness will engulf
And it might be hard to swallow
But the edge of the knife
Will leave them empty, hollow

Halloween hearts
Scream Valentines
Secret unheard whispers
Of "will you be mine"
Falling in love
Is all that they're hoping
But when one heart leaves
The other's left broken

Halloween hearts
Have all been crushed
Halloween hearts
All turn to dust
