Skeletons
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.
They see that thing
That you don't see
They call them scared to tell us
Don't be scared of them
'cause you're still you
And I'm still me
It's all irrelevant
I got scared to change
You could tell me everything
And then we could forget it
Baby, you could show me all your demons
Admit it
You could be a battle
And the words come back around, around
We going never gotta tell the lions
Where we're living
I could show you demons
Only you could take a minute
Show me that you be there
When the walls come crashing down
When you're holding back the words
'cause you're afraid of being heard
Just let love in
Just let love in
Oh, we're only skin and bones
We don't have to be alone
Just let love in
Just let love in
I, I, I, I, I, I just let love in
Just let love in
Sink or swim
What will it be?
We all got scared to change
Set them free
But now I'm over it
And I'm under you
So tell me everything
Take a trip to the moon
Oh, when you're holding back the words
'cause you're afraid of being heard
Just let love in
Just let love in
Oh, we're only skin and bones
We don't have to be alone
Just let love in
Just let love in
I, I, I, I, I, I, just let love in
Just let love in
You could tell me everything
And then we could forget it
Baby, you could show me all your demons
Admit it
You could be a battle
And the words come back around, around
We going never gotta
Tell the lions that we're living
I could show you demons
Only you could take a minute
Tell me I should be there
When the walls come crashing down
Oh, when you're holding back the words
'cause you're afraid of being heard
Just let love in
Just let love in
Oh, we're only skin and bone
We don't have to be alone
Just let love in
Just let love in
I, I, I, I, I, I, just let love in
Just let love in
I, I, I, I, I, I, just let love in
Just let love in
