about

Recorded for a Halloween "mixtape" by LA Record magazine.

lyrics

The veil between this and the shadow world grows thin
By October firefly evenings flicker out and are gone
And the long nights of darkness begin.

Forgive us our trespasses
Protect our homes and castles
Let the turning never cease

Present our children to you
Dressed in rags and voodoo
Endure our tricks, relish our treats

Witches in the forest, demons in the sacristy
Dim corners abound with fantastic beasts
Can you turn this tide with blood and sugar
Celebrate the harvest feast?

Tannin stained cobbles, the ghosts of leaves
Curse the stinging rain and the white that falls in sheets
The frost is on the pumpkin, huddled in our streets
A bitter pact with fossil fuel and electricity

Forgive us our trespasses
Protect our homes and castles
Let the fire never cease

Present our children to you
Our own sweet flesh immortal
Endure our tricks, relish our treats

The choice is yours
Trick
Or treat.
