lyrics

Skeleton

There’s a skeleton in the closet
In the back of my mind
Made up of all the different things
That I seem to hide
My regrets and missing memories
Locked behind the door
My forgotten fears and nightmares
I don’t care about anymore
Anymore
That’s why I keep them safe behind the door

All the different love
That I try to find
Some I carry with me
Some I leave behind
So I have a secret place
A place where I can store
All the things I no longer need
I don’t care about anymore
Anymore
That’s why I keep them safe behind the door

I hide that skeleton
I try never to see him again
But what if for some reason
I have to fear
Is the door secure?
Can it keep in inside
The skeleton in the back of my mind?

There’s a skeleton in the closet
In the back of my mind
Maybe holding a couple things
That I need to find
Maybe he is holding
Something I must look for
But I will not find it, no
If he is locked behind the door
The door
Yeah I keep him safe behind the door

I hide that skeleton
I try never to see him again
But what if for some reason
I have to fear
Is the door secure?
Can it keep in inside
The skeleton in the back of my mind?

I hide that skeleton
I try never to see him again
But what if for some reason
I have to fear
Is the door secure?
Can it keep in inside
The skeleton in the back of my mind?
