Skeletons

Last here a year ago, it hasn't changed a lot
Shutters fight the neon glow, as shadows pick the lock
The girl is up against the wall
When her body buckles she'll have a long way to fall

Sleeplessness divided by another floodlit day
Skeletons decide to die by throwing bones away
Her voice an impression of the queen
With her weak amphetamines she's another limousine

She's always on my mind
She's always left behind
Seems like she's made of skin and bone
She's always left alone

The half-light bursts through the door that locked away the sun
Loveless fight from days before she'll cling to anyone
She says that world wars come in threes
So she's filling up her pockets full of fallen leaves

Ruthlessness of tempered stone, a sympathetic sigh
Skeletons no skin just bone, must learn to say goodbye
She scatters names across the sun
She whispers softly that she don't need anyone

She's always on my mind
She's always left behind
Seems like I've doubled back on myself
She's always on the shelf

She's always on my mind
She's always left behind
She's always on my mind
She's always locked inside
Seems like she's made of skin and bone
She's always left alone
She's always left alone
She's always left alone
