Laughs are heard
Through out the night
False screams of terror
Running children
Bags of candy
Knocks on doors
Trick or Treat
Trick or treat
I want to end it all
I watch as children run
From house to house
Demand candy
What is the use
How about a trick
Come on in
And figure it out
Can you find the answer
There is no escape
You can run
You can hide
But in the end
There is nothing
Nothing left for you
Screams now of terror
No longer of joy
Can you find the trick
Can you solve the mystery
Will you try and get away
Even at the cost of life
Bring it all to a close
Without a moments pause
You are cornered
Your small body trembles
I taste your fear
I laugh at myself
If only you knew
You could leave
But you don’t
You never could
My hand descends
And you crumble
Your form lay there
On the cold ground
I grab your arm
I shove you down
With all the others
I have collected
I hear their screams
Their plea’s and cry’s
They want out
But the cant
They asked
Trick or treat
Trick or treat
I gave a trick
Not their treat
