Lyrics

Skeleton Boy

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I close my eyes on the dance floor

I forget about you

I lose myself in flashing colors

I've gotta see it through

You're too much,

I take it that we're over

Should we even care at all?

Too much, too much

Lets shake hands and say goodbye

Your love is out

Believing despite the loss

Give me your hand

Lets face this night and see it through

(repeat)

Right by my feet, lay broken glasses

You Skeleton Boy

Swept from the walls, drips on my shoulder

I gotta see it through

You're too much,

I take it that we're over

Should we even care at all?

Too much, too much

Lets shake hands and say goodbye

Before the sun comes out

Shake hands and say

Your love is out

Believing despite the loss

Give me your hand

Lets face this night and see it through

(repeat)
