Don’t go in there, you’ll become one
Freaky creatures, monster party
Eyes of yellow, scales and feathers
Tails and tethers, turn the lights off
Bend the nightmare, you control it
Artful dodger, easy does it
Shut the closet, get under the covers
Snakes and lovers, turn the lights off
Everybody likes to get taken for turns
To see how bright the fire inside of us burns
And everybody wants to get evil tonight
But all good devils masquerade under the light
Here’s the pinky, there’s the kinky
Everybody, complicated
Man and woman, baby child
Calm and wild, turn the lights off
Don’t remember (Day’s gone), what we look like (Night’s on)
Younger holding (Day’s gone), one another (Light’s passed)
Paper colors, (Day’s gone), dangle streaming (Night’s on)
Tangle screaming (Light’s gone), turn the lights off
Everybody likes to get taken for turns
To see how bright the fire inside of us burns
And everybody wants to get evil tonight
But all good devils masquerade under the light
Can’t they take it? Should be stronger
Books abandoned, breathe the water
Mind distracted (Bad girls), sons and daughters (Good boys)
Out for slaughter (Bad guys), turn the lights off
Sparkles and shines on the water
(Bet you’ve got a bone to pick with me)
Seeps through the cumulus brume
(Bet you’ve got a bone to pick with me)
Tingles and tears while we’re gazing
(Bet you’ve got a bone to pick with me)
Vanishes soon after bedtime for good
(Bet you’ve got a bone to pick with me)
Don’t you like it? (Day’s gone) I know I do (Night’s on)
How about you? (Day’s gone) What do we know? (Light’s passed)
Tiny patterns (Day’s gone), hypnotizing (Night’s on)
Terrorizing (Light’s gone), turn the lights off
Everybody likes to get taken for turns
To see how bright the fire inside of us burns
And everybody wants to get evil tonight
But all good devils masquerade under the light
Chroma diamonds, twinkle brightly
Dance in darkness, blow the nights off
Sleepy child, spark desire
Walk the fire...

Supposedly this song is about puberty

[@reachingzenith7772]

More specifically, it’s about puberty through the eyes of a teenager who’s scared of growing up

[@StarbitO]

@@reachingzenith7772 my song? 😱⁉️

[@notsam2270]

not sure if these are the posted lyrics from tally hall, but a possible mistake: 0:58 instead of "paper colors", the lyrics may be 'taper colors' (general theme of this section appears to be a birthday, and since growing up is this song's theme, the 'taper colors' may be referring to the candles on a cake and how they may be multi-colored)

[@n8thanwithan8]

No, I searched it up and it’s paper colors

[@HonkYeahArson]

Thank you for including the lyrics to the backing vocals :)

[@raymondjacque6594]
