Newlyweds

Halloween

And we’re all getting dressed up

In face paints and fake blood

And hanging like bats from the trees

Watch it burn

Freedom looks like a boy in a skirt

But they ended up chasing

Pushed him to the railings

And forced him to stare at the sun

Intertwine

My hands 'round your neck

It’s warm and it’s wet

And it drips to the floor from your eyes

Like the ghosts in the park

Who look like my friends

Newlyweds too in love

To check under the bed

And I want you to panic

'Cause I've seen what's ahead

Straightened teeth

Perfect smiles stained with nicotine

And you dance with a girl

'Cause she likes the same music

But you’re never quite sure what she needs

Like the ghosts in the park

Who look like my friends

Newlyweds too in love

To check under the bed

And I want you to panic

'Cause I've seen what's ahead

Like the ghosts in the park

Who looked like my friends

Newlyweds too in love

To check under the bed

And I want you to panic

Oh, I want you to panic

I want you to panic

'Cause they’re stirring again
