Twas the Night Before Halloween

Twas the night before Halloween Twas the night before Halloween And all though the Mansion the boards Started to squeak was it air expansion Out in the Halls forms came to sight Flowing out of walls a erie fright They sailed down the halls A foot or two off the floor Down the stairs they glided without a sound Into the yard They gathred up and looked to the Sky Watching the Witches Streaking by like falling Stars On Their journey for which they were born In the Lawn Hands Reach up out of the ground Climbing up to be free to roam the World Wolves howl at the Moon calling for Darkness On the Hunt they go looking to cure the hunger The vail grows thin between 2 Worlds One of Us and One of Them A Bell tolls at Midnight far away Calling in a Dawn of a new Day Remember those who have passed For someday we shall become them You are Us and We shall become them Bodies Die, Souls Never Shall!

Curiously different...those bells ring true though; souls don't die; they just transition; kind of like moving to another apartment...only better.
