The sun goes down, I’m walking home Hear a church bell ring, I’m all alone Wind scatters leaves on empty streets All around me evil waiting On All Hallow’s Eve, all my superstitions come true On All Hallow’s Eve, give rise to the ghoul inside of you On All Hallow’s Eve, no rest for the creatures of the night On All Hallow’s Eve The moon is high, the streets come alive With children dressed for Halloween Their plastic masks show only eyes Oblivious to what’s happening

Freakshow 03:19
Tongue-tied in a mind on overload Daydreaming in another world again Search hard for the right words but every time Out comes something wrong, oh no My elevator don’t go all the way to the top floor Think it’s strange but I’m in control They call me, call me, call me the Freakshow elevator don’t go all the way to the top floor gone insane now I’ve lost control They call me, call me, call me the Freakshow Day after day it gets harder to think Faces smile but they seem so alien Feet planted on the ground but my mind is gone Drifting closer to another planet
3.
Tortured 03:36
Every night there’s a place inside my mind Where I can run and hide from them The energy they steal, and I’m their fucking meal again Repeating every day, how much more can I take? They’re beating me straight down, when will it turn around? Hiding, waiting, holding on barely I am dying from this torture Speaking clearly, but no one can hear me It’s because I’m being tortured The fine line, the protection from the lies It’s becoming my demise When love is just a game, for all of them to play I guess that it’s my turn again I though that I just went, look at them They’re cheating every time, and I’m cheating just to win
4.
Voices say, it’s alright Speak to me, give me life Take my hand, don’t say no I’ll make you mine, but first we must go In the house where the spirits roam In the house the dead call home In the house with the candle burning From the house there is no returning Now we’re here, and all is well The time is right, to cast my spell With flames on high, let’s start the show The best is yet to come, so please don’t go
5.
Murderhand 03:14
Hang out in fancy clubs, she don’t Know a thing about designer drugs, she don’t Give a shit what books you’ve read, she don’t Give two shits where you make your bed Not a care for the human race, she’s gonna Wipe the smile right off of your face, she’s gonna Spill your blood all over the place Now your gone, you’re gone, you’re gone, you’re gone Murderhand, she’s done it again When the bloodstains paint the land She carries on with the mind of a monster And the will of ten Murderhand, she’s done it again With an eye on mortal man She carries on with the mind of a monster Just to do it again Red lips and a mouthful of lies, she’s got Dead soul and the devil’s eyes, she’s got Hair the color of the Reaper’s hood, she’s got Demons waiting in the wood Call them out to another place, to another time, just another race Spill your blood all over the place Now your gone, you’re gone, you’re gone, you’re gone
6.
For every time you passed us by For every chance you had to save A joker or a wounded heart You turned and let it slip away No soul to save Dance to the grave This is the day Dance 2 the Grave As you kneel and beg for mercy At the final reckoning How dare you ask for lenience We remember everything The lives you tore apart The wall of hate you made The desperation you ignored Has come to seal your fate
7.
Cover me when I run Cover me through the fire Something knocked me out the trees Now I'm on my knees Cover me, darling please Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know when you're going to shock the monkey Fox the fox Rat on the rat You can ape the ape I know about that There is one thing you must be sure of I can't take any more Darling, don't you monkey with the monkey Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey Wheels keep turning Something's burning Don't like it but I guess I'm learning Shock Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey Cover me, when I sleep Cover me, when I breathe Throw your pearls before the swine Make the monkey blind Cover me, darling please Monkey, monkey, monkey Don't you know you're going to shock the monkey Too much at stake Ground beneath me shake And the news is breaking
8.
Purify 03:15
Born from sin and hate and lies And ignorance of darker times Bred to slay the weak of mind The mystical and all divine Purify, drown the witches in the river Purify, burn the wizard in the fire Eyes on fire with scorn, dismay And fear of those who disobey Raised a beast with heavy hand To kill what he don’t understand War is waged, the weak will die As spears are thrown into the sky The deed now done, they’ve paid the toll Now none are left to save your soul
9.
Moonlight on the wall, mirror on the door Silence in the hall, the sound of slumber A shifting of the air, a rustling on the floor Straightening of the hairs on the back of your neck No escape from, come come again No release from, come come again Nowhere to run, come come again No sleep, the demon’s hiding in the closet Something in the room, stealing every breath Sealing in your doom, this silent stranger Rise and take a stand, open up your eyes You’re standing face to face with your worst nightmare Sing unto thine angels watching From the heavens all rejoicing
10.
Street lights and empty stores Feet fall on lonely sidewalks Wind howls as the rain pours down Like a cursed choir shouting out your name Uneasy feelings take hold, making every shadow come to life The moon is high and you’re all alone Keep walking faster, faster Eyes in the dark, watching you move Feeling afraid, what should you do? Hands start to shake, feel the pounding of your heart All because you feel those eyes in the dark Hard to breathe as your fears take hold Hearing footsteps fall behind you Try to run but it’s just too late Feel the cold hand wrap around your neck Feels like it’s over now, turn around to see what grips you Like a scene from a horror show It leaves you screaming, screaming
11.
Signs 03:34
They say that love happens real fast And when it’s found you should forget your past They say that love should never stray Never hurt and never cause you pain When you’ve said too much there’s no going back Your heart remains to sit and face the facts Signs, when they come without warning Why, do you leave me falling? They tell you when you need to walk away Tell you when it’s not safe to stay So why should I have to think anymore When they’re standing outside love’s open door They say that love happens real fast But they fail to tell you it’s a pain in the ass
12.
Tell-Tale 03:41
No enchanted dreams, or lighthearted themes Nothing promising what tomorrow will bring Just a hurt that kills, and the light that spills On my windowsill Tell-tale’s knocking at your door The only one you’ll open for Don’t mind if I have to stay in bed all day Tell-tale’s knocking at your door Louder than the day before Time is passing by so slow it never used to be this way No adoring eyes, telling pretty lies Like in days gone by Just a room with a view, of the world I once knew When I lived like you
13.
Mix Around 03:38
Every street light shines, with a purpose tonight Glistening on the backs of the living dead Each of grand design, with just one thing in mind And the skill to find what they’re looking for Do the Mix Around, do the Mix Around Blow it up, tear it down to the crimson sound Do the Mix Around, do the Mix Around Blow it up, tear it down to the crimson sound When the beat takes the driver’s seat we come alive We come alive, we come alive When the beat takes the driver’s seat we come alive We come alive, we come alive Walk in single file, wearing friendly smiles Scheming all the while, let the feast begin Screams of terror rise, fear fills every eye Meeting their demise in the house of sin
14.
Dear John 02:50
See me staring in the mirror I take a good look and I don’t like what I see Lines of anger growing deeper Whatever happened to the way things used to be Everybody has a reason Everybody is afraid to take the blame For losing sight of the big picture Everybody does it cuz we’re all the same Dear John, where did we go wrong? Dear John, when will they take use home? Got a number in my pocket With a promise of better days head I’d like to say that I believe it But the words are caught behind the demons in my head Every time I find an answer It lasts a while and then the wheels stop spinning around Back to the grind and a mind so sinister Don’t wanna get up but I can’t stay here Dear John, when will our time come? Dear John, these years are far too long
