Tonight, for one night, let us all be unmasked.
Put our cards on the table, tell the truth unasked.
Tonight we can all just show up as we are,
Knights, Ninjas, Warriors, Princesses, Bards.
Trick or Treat, Trick or Treat. You don’t who you’ll meet.
As we check every house, challenge each street.
There are ghouls in this world and warlocks and mages.
We aren’t those, we aren’t theirs, We’re the saints of the ages.
The gates of the hellions won’t stay up long,
As we march through the streets with our anthems and song.
If you’re nasty and gross, pay us tribute to leave,
Or a trick we might play, to show the evil you weave.
We are here for the story, to find hell and face it.
It the work of the night, and we embrace it.
We’re in pageant,rehearsal,and forced to remember,
We’re enchanted. Laughter will help us see clearer.
Everyman shows what spills out of their heart,
Streets blaze brilliantly, dark and light parts,
There’s no household silence only ceding to shade,
Don’t hang out your flag for the invading raid.
Bad behaved churches, we are coming for you.
with our thesis and hammer and tonsure too
Its the night, almost hallowed, and yet, not quite.
It brings out longing, the charge against spite.
Night is when light comes out to play
Light dances in fireflies, stars, and Yule day.
Our King is the Light, You’re using his spark.
And we are the boogiemen of the dark.
Boo! Watch out! We are off on a lark.
We are the boogiemen of the dark.
