Pagan Holiday, Pt. 1, 2 & 3: A Celebration / Dormant / Revenge

(album: Pagan Holiday - 2013)

Black cats
Scurrying rats
Flapping bats
And heart attacks
Paint your faces green
And act obscene
'Cause it's Halloween

Goblins, spooks, and vampires too
Werewolves come to chew on you
The jack-o-lanterns start to grin
So let the tricks and treats begin

On Halloween
Halloween
It's Halloween
Halloween

Fires crackle while I hold you tight
The witches cackle as they fly tonight
The devils all come out to play
And frighten children till night is day

Now let's go visit the haunted grave
Take my hand, we must be brave
And afterwards we'll get our fortunes read
But when the sun comes up we'll both be dead

Until next Halloween
Halloween
It's Halloween
Halloween

The sky is gray. The leaves are falling on the ground
And old man winter's coming round
One festive night and then it's gone without a sound
But death follows me around

I don't know if I can take another year
It's so cold
And I know my faith is dying here
You tease me
With what I know I'll never reach
I pray thee
But I won't cry I won't beseech

I'm rolling up in my cocoon
I'm changing with the fullness of the moon
Don't take away
The only love I know
My sacrifice
If I ever want to glow

So I can't win
You're making me choose
Between my love and my sin
And I thought I was an angel
But I was wrong
I'm with the others
And I've been here all along
Will you punish me because I'm made in your blood?
Do I fly in the storm
Or do I wallow in the mud?

'Cause I've been lost for years
But I'm not coming back
The guilt suffocates me and turns my soul black
So don't blame the Devil
For the shit that you've done
You've made this mess
And you're just having fun
With those who are able to see

She was a pretty girl;
A treasure to him
She was the purpose of his life
And when they came they took his flower from him
Those wicked men they killed his wife

It was on Halloween when they found their way in
He wasn't home, they were aware
She prayed for death as they indulged their sin
When he returned he found her there

So now's your chance
It may not be right
Do you run and tell
Or do you stay and fight?
Rage fills your mind; you were a man without sin
It's two against one;
You'll never win

But you just can't care
There's blood everywhere

Bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum

It was a cold night when you let yourself in
They both were armed, you did not care
And one by one your torment seized each culprit
Police found no bodies anywhere

There was no mercy shown
When they broke into your home
And ravished your lovely wife
Before taking her life
There's a beast in all who dwell
On this Earth that is our hell
Suppress it if you can
But it's inside every man

Did you feel no remorse
When you disciplined with force?
Was it justice from above?
Did you punish them with love?

Or was it cold hard revenge?
Did you earn your way to hell?
Will God forgive your sin?
Well that depends on who you tell

There was blood everywhere
But you just could not care

Bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum bum
