Siouxsie & The Banshees - Voices on the Air: The Peel Sessions

Halloween

The night is still
And the frost it bites my face
I wear my silence like a mask
And murmur like a ghost

Trick or treat
Trick or treat
The bitter and the sweet
Trick or treat
Trick or treat
The bitter and the sweet

The carefree days
Are distant now
I wear my memories like a shroud
I try to speak, but words collapse
Echoing
Echoing

Trick or treat
Trick or treat
The bitter and the sweet
Trick or treat
Trick or treat
The bitter and the sweet

I wander though your sadness
Gazing at you with scorpion eyes
Halloween, Halloween

Ho oh oh oh
Ho oh oh oh
Ho oh oh oh
Oh
Ho oh

A sweet reminder
In the ice-blue nursery
Of a childish murder
Of hidden lustre
And she cries

Trick or treat
Trick or treat
The bitter and the sweet
Trick or treat
Trick or treat
The bitter and the sweet

I wander through your sadness
Gazing at you with scorpion eyes
Halloween, Halloween
Halloween, Halloween

Ho oh oh oh
Ho oh oh oh
Ho oh oh oh
Oh
Ho oh
