Come Alive, Halloween

Lyrics

[Intro: A cappella] Hush now… who’s there? A howl cuts through the midnight air Ha-ha-ha… come closer The door swings wide—Halloween is over [Verse 1] Your candle shakes against the wall A crooked portrait starts to fall You hear soft footsteps cross the stair Then find no one waiting there [Pre-Chorus] Hold your breath, count to four Something’s moving by the door When the shadows start to sway There is only one way to play [Chorus] Come alive, Halloween Turn around—what did you see? Hands up high, don’t look back Hear the monster on your track Come alive, Halloween Laughing loud, a wicked scene One more step, one more scream Come alive, Halloween [Verse 2] The old clock strikes, the windows shake A silver grin beneath the lake You call my name, I answer twice A friendly face can hide a fright [Pre-Chorus] Hold your breath, count to four Something’s moving by the door When the shadows start to sway There is only one way to play [Chorus] Come alive, Halloween Turn around—what did you see? Hands up high, don’t look back Hear the monster on your track Come alive, Halloween Laughing loud, a wicked scene One more step, one more scream Come alive, Halloween [Bridge] A wolf cries out beyond the trees The graveyard gates swing in the breeze A monster laughs, the floorboards groan Tonight the dark has claimed its own [Final Chorus] Come alive, Halloween Turn around—what did you see? Hands up high, don’t look back Hear the monster on your track Come alive, Halloween Laughing loud, a wicked scene One more step, one more scream Come alive, Halloween [Outro] Ha-ha-ha… the house is still A distant howl beyond the hill Hush now… who’s there?
