Boogie Man Reckoning

Five... eight... nine... Ray.

Ray counting the souls in a row Boogie man grinning,

moving slow Slender man tall in the back of the frame I

hear my name, I hear my name Halloween is tonight

When the dead come back to life

And the living beg for redemption

But the door won’t open twice

Redemption, redemption

Can’t save

y’all tonight

Redemption, redemption

Hear the dirt start to bite

Redemption, redemption

We’re past the candlelight

Redemption can’t save y’all

Halloween is tonight Footsteps on the porch in the cold

Every story you told,

getting sold

Names on the wall like a debt You don’t forget what you

owe, not yet

Count them again

On my hands

On my teeth

On your friends

No more prayers

No more breath

Redemption can’t save y’all

I saw the mask become your face

I saw the grave become your place

If you’re looking for a clean slate Dig faster,

dig faster

Redemption, redemption Can’t save y’all tonight Redemption,

redemption Hear the dirt start to bite Redemption can’t save y’all

Halloween is tonight Redemption can’t save y’all (ah!)
