Skeletons Lyrics

She was dressed in white and we both spoke

The joy we had knowing we all made it

Now I'm dressed in black and the words just choke

Even though each life was meant to be traded

Was I there in your mind

When we were all asleep?

But you were up all night

'Cause maybe it'd be your last time

I'm sorry I didn't keep my promise

But how could I have known

The skeletons that visited our town

Would give you a piece of their ground?

But since now I know you're never coming home

I find it hard to get up and go

You didn't have a choice but since I do

I won't be the one to leave you

If we knew he'd be here dressed in black

Would we have still put him under attack?

It was time lost in a teenage syllable

But the word we learned was vincible

Now I know the way you felt

When you cried help

But no one cared

So they left you

And in a dream you died

But back then it was a lie

Now I know the worst dreams are the only ones bound to come true

Now I know the way you felt

When you cried help

But no one cared

So they left you

Now I know the nightmares of you were the only dreams which were meant to come true
