Lyrics

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.

I was following adventure, nothing mattered

And I knew best

I had a blood in my head, no one could shake it

Cause I knew best

But now I find

Remains of people that I left behind

I never took them wise

And now the skeletons tell me hit me now and then

Here come the skeletons to say I told you so again

Wish I'd done things differently

Cause skeletons don't set you free

I'd make a life for myself, I'd be a bigshot

Cause I knew best

I had high expectations, I was headstrong

And I knew best

All of my friends knew

What I was doing to the loving few

I know it's hard to chew

Cause now the skeletons tell me hit me now and then

Here come the skeletons to say I told you so again

Wish I'd done things differently

Cause skeletons don't set you free

Well, all I wanted was fame to feed my ego

And I knew best

Cause when you're high on success you get impressed

And I knew best

I knew best
