"Dracula" (c) Shane Cooley (2018)
lyrics:
Every Halloween I feel just like Dracula
Just like Dracula
All alone
Hanging out all supernatural
In a big old castle
Like it's my home
If this is wrong then I don't wanna be right
If I make it 'til the dawn then I've probably already died
And every Thanksgiving I feel just like the main course
Couldn't get much worse
For the wear
It's late November it's getting colder
If getting older
Wish I didn't care
If this is living then I sure don't wanna die
If this is living then I sure don't wanna die
And it's a holiday
Every day
Around here
Well it's almost Easter but I won't rise again
I won't rise again
I assure you
One, two three days I won't rise again
I'm bad at flying
And at dying I'm worse
And it's a holiday
Every day
around here
It's a holiday every day here

music & lyrics by Shane Forest Cooley (ASCAP)
"Moonlit Words" (c) Shane Cooley (2010)
lyrics:
We speak our best in moonlit words
And eloquence that the sun never heard
I wake up to all new worries and paint them dead
With moonlit words
I went out one night with Man on the Moon
We shot holes in road signs
To avenge his cratered face
We made idle threats to the sun
Then we had to leave so long
Before I wanted to go home
We speak our best in moonlit words
And eloquence that the sun never heard
I wake up to all new worries and paint them dead
With moonlit words
If you could just see me in the moonlight
It just might turn out to be alright
If you could just see what I'm really like
It might be fine
My bark might not be my bite
We speak our best in moonlit words
And eloquence that the sun never heard
I wake up to all new worries and paint them dead
With moonlit words
What makes me howl at the moon
What makes me howl at the moon
What makes me howl at the moon
What makes me howl at the moon
