Halloween Lyrics - The Gaslight Anthem

Sympathy, 

this is my best disguise 

My skin stepped out for my bones to dry up 

for the rest of the world outside to see 

You see I, bleed on the side 

It's a part time thing, a private affair 

I try to keep it out of the light 

I must confess, I didn't recognize you tonight 

dressed up like my love 

And I hate these things but I always attend 

A little sip of something to take off the edge 

And I make my way through the ghosts in the room 

trying to crack a smile

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

And who are you supposed to be? 

You look like heaven tonight 

Me, I'm a tomb, a corpse in a suit, trying to look a little alive 

Are you alright? I worry sometimes 

Are you dressed up to take my life? 

We keep it coming. 

Keep it coming. 

Well I think I saw you for the flash of a moment 

Your broken heart and the body that holds it 

I lost your scent in the flash of the party 

The big bright lights, baby, constantly haunt me 

I've never been right, have you ever been lied to? 

I think I just saw the same scars upon you 

Is this a disguise? A masquerade for me? 

Keep it coming. 

Keep it coming. 

Keep it coming.

Who are you supposed to be? 

Are you dressed just like my love tonight? 

Who are you supposed to be? 

Yeah, you look just like my love tonight. 

Who are you supposed to be? 

Are you dressed just like my love for Halloween?
