Lyrics
Skeletons
Just decided that today
I'll tell you what I don't want you to know
That's what I'll do
I can put the pen to paper
write a thousand stories without you
It's what I do
But it takes all I got
Just to look you in the eye
Yeah it takes all I got
Hey you stupid skeletons
Come on out and show yourselves
Hey you stupid skeletons
Swore that I'd forget you last time
we were down and dirty in the dark
That's what I'd do
Stuffed you into sunken spaces
Buried deep but couldn't erase you
What could I do
But you kept creeping up
Just Like some familiar face
Yeah you kept creeping up
Hey you stupid skeletons
Come on out and show yourselves
Hey you stupid skeletons
Are you a dark creation
Of my imagination
Hey you stupid skeletons
Come on out and show yourselves
Hey you stupid skeletons
Come on out and show yourselves
Hey you stupid skeletons
Maybe we'll be friends, friend
Maybe, maybe in the end
