Skeletons Lyrics
Heartist
Lyrics
I've forgotten how to feel.
These nights, they chill me.
Light the way to something real and save me from myself.
You, you chase the cold from me.
With you, I'm learning to see.
I just need you to know.
I tried to find a way to bury all the pain
But these skeletons, these skeletons, these skeletons
Won't sleep.
You gave me clarity and showed me how to free
These skeletons, these skeletons, these skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me.
How can I forget the past,
If it still haunts me?
Your ghost never fades away.
When I gave up everything
And you!
You took a hold of me
And proved I'm more than a broken wing!
I just need you to know!
I tried to find a way to bury all the pain
But these skeletons, these skeletons, these skeletons
Won't sleep!
You gave me clarity and showed me how to free
These skeletons, these skeletons, these skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me.
Sympathy is hard to find,
So maybe life should be defined
By all the pain we left behind,
It rots inside our minds!
You make me believe!
I tried to find a way to bury all the pain
But these skeletons, these skeletons, these skeletons
Won't sleep.
You gave me clarity and showed me how to free
These skeletons, these skeletons, these skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me.
These skeletons in me!
