[m/l van

[Part I:

a rare month for boys
When life is simple, and sweet
And the foolish youth can
The outside the door

Come hear a of Halloween
And one October not past
Jim Nightshade and Will
Would never be quite so young

Fury, the of lightning rods, foretells the coming storm
The light's on in the library, beneath the sky
Charles Halloway sits deep inside, by his books
A serious, lonely and sad old man youth has passed him by

And Jim and conspire
To the carousel
Could set souls afire
Could them straight to Hell

[Part II:

Far away, but much too for comfort
calliope is playing
Halloway sits in the darkened
dark thoughts
Son at he doesn't really know
Fifty-four seems so very old
Throws the ad in the fire
Flames grow

Long midnight, children awake
await them, chances to take
Run through the to the carnival grounds
Hoping to ride the

Three AM is for the soul
Never is a man so close to
The of temptation is at hand
are damned

What's the purpose of a life of
What you don't know can hurt you
Every step he he second-guessed
Life of

Ride's out of order, no one's
a whisper, hardly a sound
Thinking that alone, but they're not
Gloved hands encircle, now are caught

[Part The Carnival]

Late that the boys returned
Watched the carousel 'round
old man into young
Bringing darkness to

Carousel turns and
Years can scorch and time can
Dark's accomplice, age
Now a boy accursed

Jim and stumble in
To this whirling of sin
spins the carousel
Cooger ages, dies and goes to

Dark knows at once
That the boys seen too much
As call for the police
He and the wait
For their to be unleashed

Boys return the law
Try to tell them they saw
The witch her voice and the old, dead man
Seems to to life again

The ruse has worked, no one the
Tales of what the boys seen
The witch locks they fear her most;
She wishes them a "short sad for both!"

IV: Pursuits]

Late that night the witch to the sky above the town
Searching for the boys who know the secret of the
A black parade of circus freaks, and led by Dark,
every street for the boys to drag them down to hell

The boys have seen too
And now their death will be silence
The freaks have caskets fashioned for the little who hid
And Mister halts the procession, seeing the librarian,
He asks him who the boys are; fills with rage as the old man

[Part V: The Autumn

Late that night inside the old library
Circled by arcane and books
Scouring them for any of knowledge.
Charles, Jim and

A father's son who doesn't his dad
Suddenly he that he had
As he sees this old lonely man
Could be they the only hope they

The Carnival has been here times
Its is found between the lines
Comes by every forty or so
Since more than two hundred ago

They feast upon the and fears of men
Promise you just you want and then
When they're through they'll steal your very
Entomb you in their

And as the church rings
hear the opening door
The hide for their lives
As Mister Dark

[Part VI:

Tearing at his
To take a second
To right the
To live

No

No living as a
Man to old to his son

He turns the down
Not to exchange his soul
For he wants the most

Mister
Charles' hand
And the witch to give the man
A taste of precious

(old man) Hear your
(old man) your hurt
(old man) See bleeding
(old man) Stop your

VII: Confrontations]

(Halloway) ten closer to death
(Somehow) finding the courage to
(Laughter) in the witch's face
(Laughter) her wicked soul
(Standing), knowing he's beaten her
(Smiling), knowing the is now
(Striding) purposefully the street
(Knowing) that he can save somehow
(Mister Dark) leads the boys the streets
(Will to be) into a toy for freaks
(Nightshade) to be his for life
(After the) over tonight
(Carnival): one last to see
(Shoot the witch): who cannot die
(Mister Dark) gazes out over the for a
(Volunteer): someone to it a try

(Halloway) calls out deep in the crowd
(Mister Dark) cannot believe his
(Halloway) his hand picks up the gun
(To it) he calls for the help of his son

VIII: Departures]

Far away, in the mirror maze
The whole town calls his
And Will the spell
The dust placed upon his head

father and son
as one
As Mister gives them the bullet and
Charles carves into a moon

Mister Dark at the bullet
He yet under stand
The meaning of what has done
So he let's the proceed

But the moon he isn't a moon at all
It's his smile the carries
And this totem finds way
To the witch's

The gun and the
Witch this and now is dead!

Chaos spreads, and Charles and
Run to the to rescue Jim
walks in
Confronted by reflections of a ancient men
Staring back and making him
A full of regrets
A man who never his son
A man whose deeds never done

rises from
The hall of mirrors
He picks up his son and runs him
the carnival grounds

Nightshade still the carousel
Charles and Will him down
boy appears saying
Mister Dark's
And the four of us must chase

looks at the strange young boy
He sees him for he is
Mister made younger again by the
of the carousel

Charles the boy up
Holds him and feels his hatred
And with determination
Lets his heart fill love
for his and his son
And returns the boy's hate this love and it
courses
Dark's young
And he withers and

As the tents disappears
The three of them
laughing back to
Two boys and one man
No longer quite so old as he

Far away but too close for comfort
Far away but much too close for
