Ghastly Groove Cuts
(yeah) October chill running deep inside my chest
Nobody knocks, but I never get no rest
Carved out smiles in the pumpkins by the gate
Sitting on the porch watching moonlight dissipate Old memories creeping up like
footsteps on the floor Heard a floorboard creak,
kept my eyes upon the door
Thinking 'bout the choices and the people that I lost Every winter
promise had a bitter autumn frost Got the cobwebs hanging in the
corners of my mind
Looking for the peace that I never seem to find
Midnight strikes, the leaves begin to turn Every cold lesson that I
had to learn
Lock the deadbolt, let the candle burn (let it burn,
yeah)
Underneath the blood moon,
dancing with my ghosts
Haunted by the ones that I used to love the most Yeah,
the shadows on the wall never fade away
Living through the night just to hide from the day (ooh-ooh) Dancing
with my ghosts till the daylight breaks
(yeah,
till the morning)
Fallen leaves scraping down the asphalt street Heart skipping time to the
cadence of the beat Used to love the frights when I was
younger in a mask Now I run from questions that nobody dared
to ask Graveyard silence when I walk into the room Silver autumn
mist settling down into the gloom Tryna outrun all the phantom pain
inside
Nowhere left for a weary soul to hide
Midnight strikes, the leaves begin to turn Every cold lesson that I
had to learn
Lock the deadbolt, let the candle burn (yeah,
let it burn)
Underneath the blood moon,
dancing with my ghosts
Haunted by the ones that I used to love the most Yeah,
the shadows on the wall never fade away
Living through the night just to hide from the day (ooh-ooh) Dancing
with my ghosts till the daylight breaks
(dancing with my ghosts)
They
linger in the hall,
calling out my name (calling my name) Playing tricks on my head
in a wicked little game
No treats in the dark when the clock rewinds Leaving all the
sweet things behind
Underneath the blood moon,
dancing with my ghosts Haunted by the ones that I used to
love the most Yeah,
the shadows on the wall never fade away
Living through the night just to hide from the day (ooh-ooh) Dancing
with my ghosts till the daylight breaks
(yeah,
dancing with my ghosts!)
Another October done...
Carved out hearts,
nowhere left to run.
Happy Halloween. (hahaha)
