Lyrics

Candy Corn

[Verse 1]

Bless you

Bless our victorious wars

I pray for you

Blood and candy mixing on the floor

I close your eyes

[Chorus]

Candy corn

Strings of candy corn

[Verse 2]

A string of pearls

A candy for each day

Each one breathes memories

In the face of a hollow man

Who says "I hear a voice"

[Chorus]

Candy corn

Strings of candy corn

[Verse 3]

All silhouettes

Walk in front of me

I see your face

When around their necks

I place these candy beads

Blood and candy mixing on the floor

I close your eyes

[Chorus]

Candy corn

Strings of candy corn
