[Intro] Orlando, lock the gates— the masks came off too late. [Verse 1] Wet heat clings to the costume seams, cheap plastic fangs and sugar dreams. Past orange groves, the sirens bend, while painted monsters call us friends. [Pre-Chorus] The last ride stops, the sky turns red, something in the parade is dead. [Chorus] Halloween in Orlando—run when the black clouds roll! Grin for the camera, hide your soul! Halloween in Orlando—teeth in the sugar bowl! When the midnight bells ring, nobody goes home! [Verse 2] A pirate mask in a puddle spins, wet footprints lead where no one lives. The candy’s warm, the street is bare, then every porch light snaps to stare. [Breakdown] Bite down! Hold fast! The night won’t let you pass! Bite down! No dawn! The whole damn city’s gone! [Final Chorus] Halloween in Orlando—run when the black clouds roll! Grin for the camera, hide your soul! Halloween in Orlando—teeth in the sugar bowl! When the midnight bells ring, nobody goes home! [Outro] Orlando, lock the gates— the masks came off too late.
