[Part I:

October's a month for boys
When life is simple, pure and
And the youth can overlook
The wolf outside the

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

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

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

[Part II:

Far away, but too close for comfort
calliope is playing
Halloway in the darkened library
Thinking thoughts
Son at home he doesn't really
Fifty-four years seems so old
Throws the ad in the fire
Flames grow

Long after midnight, children
Journeys await them, to take
Run through the to the carnival grounds
to ride the merry-go-round

Three AM is midnight for the
Never is a man so to death
The of temptation is at hand

What's the purpose of a of virtue?
What you know certainly can hurt you
Every step he he second-guessed
Life of

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

[Part III: The

Late that the boys returned
Watched the spin 'round
Turning old man into
Bringing darkness to

Carousel turns and
Years can and time can burn
Dark's accomplice, age
Now becomes a boy

Forward the carousel
Cooger ages, dies and to hell

Mister Dark at once

As they for the police
He and the wait
For their plan to be

Try to them what they saw
The witch throws her voice and the old, man
Seems to to life again

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

IV: Pursuits]

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

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

[Part V: The People]

Late night inside the town's old library
Circled by and evil books
Scouring them for any of knowledge.
Charles, Jim and

A father's son who know his dad
Suddenly he wishes he had
As he sees that this old man
Could be they the only they have

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

They feast upon the sins and of men
Promise you what you want and then
they're through they'll steal your very soul
Entomb you in sideshow

And as the bell rings
They hear the door
The hide for their lives
As Dark arrives

VI: Temptations]

To take a second
To the wrongs
To again

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
Crushes hand
And the witch to give the man
A taste of precious

(old man) Feel hurt
(old man) See you're
(old man) Stop heart

VII: Confrontations]

(Halloway) ten closer to death
(Somehow) finding the to laugh
(Laughter) in the witch's face
(Laughter) her wicked soul
(Standing), he's beaten her back
(Smiling), knowing the is now
(Striding) into the street
(Knowing) he can save them somehow
(Mister Dark) leads the into 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) out over the crowd for a
(Volunteer): someone to it a try

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

[Part VIII:

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

Halloway: and son
as one
As Mister Dark them the bullet and
Charles carves into a moon

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

But the moon he carved a moon at all
his smile the bullet carries
And this totem it's way
To the witch's

The gun and the
Witch this and now is dead!

spreads, and Charles and Will
Run to the maze to Jim
walks in
Confronted by reflections of a ancient men
Staring and making him older
A full of regrets
A man who knew his son
A man whose deeds were done

Halloway rises
The hall of mirrors
He picks up his son and with him
Across the grounds

Nightshade upon the carousel
Charles and help him down
Another boy saying
Mister Dark's
And the four of us must give

Halloway looks at the young boy
He him for what he is
Mister Dark made again by the
of the carousel

Charles the boy up
Holds him close and his hatred
And with grave
Lets his heart fill with
for his and his son
And returns the boy's hate this love and it
courses
Dark's body
And he and dies

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

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