In the morning throw a hoodie on
It's tied around your waist at 1
Dead leaves tumble down suburban sidewalks
A double-feature's playing down a couple blocks
And it's always so comforting to me
When it gets close to Halloween
We're all a ghost story it seems
Just ghosts still existing
Porches dressed in cobwebs
A carnival in Middlesex
A stop sign that blew down in the wind
Was repurposed by the kids
Horror movie marathons
Donnie Darko songs
Reenergized skeletons
Becoming ourselves again
And it's always so comforting to me
When it gets close to Halloween
We're all a ghost story it seems
Just ghosts still existing
For now
Last chorus
Say what you mean
Somewhere we're yearning just to breathe
Cause we're all a ghost story it seems
Just ghosts still existing
