Skeletons - Close Your Eyes

You, listen up.

Take a look around,

take in all the sights and sounds.

Is this how you thought it would be?

Experience is the most brutal of teachers

and we are what we believe.

But you’re not even a skeleton

of what you used to be.

It’s over!

I am not a saint,

but I am not my sins.

I’m still standing!

It must be lonely up that on the pedestal you built on a shelf

Perhaps the suspicion of fraud enhances the flavor,

but you just gave up on yourself.

It’s only the beginning.

I am not a saint,

but I am not my sins.

I’m still standing!

When I see your face

and see how you’ve turned,

it makes me sick to think of all the bridges you’ve burned.

And yeah, it hurts

me to know

you have lost everything

that you loved.

A ghost is all that’s left.

You have lost everything

that you loved.

A ghost is all that’s left.

You have lost everything

that you loved.

A ghost is all that’s left.

You have lost everything
