I keep all my skeletons under my bed, they try and put me to sleep but they just wake me instead. I keep them inside a box I lock with a key so when I wake in the night they don't stare up at me. When I pour my cereal they sit at the table and laugh when the carton of milk has run dry. They don't pay rent and when I'm feeling depressed they just stare with cold bones and sunken deep hollow eyes. Oh.
I keep my skeletons. They keep me sweet company every night every day. Oh. I keep my skeletons. I keep them when am I gonna feel them slipping away.
I keep all this heavy weight on top of my back, wait for the weightless of the past to somehow keep coming back. I walk with my body hanging down to the left to compensate for the heart that pounds inside of my chest. When I put a hat on I just take out my brain replacing thinking for fashion so I don't feel any pain. And I attach cinder blocks under my feet, I'm an even paced walker I can't get no relief. Oh.
I keep my skeletons. They keep me sweet company every night every day. Oh. I keep my skeletons. I keep them when am I gonna feel them slipping away. I keep my skeletons. They keep me sweet company every night every day. Oh. I keep my skeletons. I keep them when am I gonna feel them slipping away. Slipping away. Slipping away. I keep them when am I gonna feel them slipping away. Slipping away oh. Slipping away. I keep them when am I gonna feel them slipping away.
I keep all my skeletons under my bed before I sleep I ask if someday they could leave me instead. I keep them inside a box I lock with a key, they say "dream baby, dream dream dream."
