Oh, cigarettes and company
I'm never where I want to be:
The dirty, dirty ground
Oh, Halloween! The blood you drew
You carved a space to climb into
And like a lantern, like a pyre
I burn, I burn with holy fire
I talk when I don't have to
And I hope it doesn't matter
'Cause we know what we know
And I don't know how you do it
But I change and you see to it
That we ain't got no show
And all I could see in the ink of the dark
Was your cigarette, breathing like beating heart
I fold mine in, like origami
It might look pretty, but you do not know me
I talk when I don't have to
And I hope it doesn't matter
'Cause we know what we know
And I don't know how you do it
But I change and you see to it
That we ain't got no show
Oh, Halloween! Oh, jealous star
Are you who you say you are?
I thought you would have found me out by now
Oh, Halloween! The blood you drew
You carved a space to climb into
I don't know what I should have seen
Oh, not since Halloween
Oh, not since Halloween
No, not since Halloween
No, not since Halloween
Halloween
Halloween
Oh, Captain of my industry Oh, cigarettes and company I'm never where I want to be: The dirty, dirty ground Oh, Halloween! The blood you drew You carved a space to climb into And like a lantern, like a pyre I burn, I burn with holy fire I talk when I don't have to And I hope it doesn't matter 'Cause we know what we know And I don't know how you do it But I change and you see to it That we ain't got no show And all I could see in the ink of the dark Was your cigarette, breathing like beating heart I fold mine in, like origami It might look pretty, but you do not know me I talk when I don't have to And I hope it doesn't matter 'Cause we know what we know And I don't know how you do it But I change and you see to it That we ain't got no show Oh, Halloween! Oh, jealous star Are you who you say you are? I thought you would have found me out by now Oh, Halloween! The blood you drew You carved a space to climb into I don't know what I should have seen Oh, not since Halloween Oh, not since Halloween No, not since Halloween No, not since Halloween Halloween Halloween Explain Request ×
