[Intro – whispered, overlapping voices] (footsteps on wet leaves… faint giggles…) “Knock, knock… who’s there?” “Trick… or… treat…” (childlike laughter turns into deep growling chuckle) The door creaks open — and the night begins to bleed… Verse 1 Lanterns flicker down the lane, Masks of joy conceal the pain. Candy wrapped in crimson lies, A sweet disguise for terrified eyes. Little ghosts go house to house, While something hunts — quiet as a mouse. A shadow grins behind the door, Whispering, “you won’t leave here anymore…” Chorus (dark and whisper-layered) Trick R Treat of Terror — the night that never ends, The laughter hides the hunger, the darkness calls your friends. Bags of sweets turn into screams, You’ll never wake from candy dreams. (trick… or… treat… your soul tastes sweet…) Verse 2 Pumpkins watch with hollow eyes, Their candles burn where daylight dies. Every knock brings something near, A shadow whispering, “I’m here…” The children’s songs distort and break, Each rhyme a promise they must take. Behind the mask, a smile of bone, Tonight the monsters claim their throne. Chorus (hauntingly building) Trick R Treat of Terror — where innocence decays, You’ll dance beneath the harvest moon until it fades away. The laughter turns to cries of fright, As candy bleeds beneath the light. Bridge (whispered chaos – overlapping voices) (“one for you… one for me…”) (“don’t run… don’t hide…”) (“every house… every door… we’ll find more…”) (“say it… say it again — trick or treat…”) Breakdown (music stops, faint heartbeats + whispers) You open your bag — and find your fate, A mirror smiles — it’s far too late. The mask you wear won’t come undone, Now you’re part of the endless fun. Final Chorus (crescendo, screams, laughter) Trick R Treat of Terror — your name carved in the flame, The night remembers every child who played its deadly game. You knock once more, with empty eyes, The trick is yours — the treat… your cries. Outro (music box + laughter fading) (hee-hee-hee…) The door slams shut — the porchlight dies, Your voice still whispers Halloween goodbyes…
