skeletons

Nina Nesbitt

Put on my shoes and see through my eyes
It s hard to judge what you can t visualise
And as the night falls and shadows creep,
The air is silent on my street
Lying in my bed, questions in my head
And it s all so, so quiet, quiet

Then skeletons come out to play
When my mind wonders and memories fade, fade
Telling me I ll never win as I m betting
My last coins on the game, the game
So close that door, and I ll seal the floors
And they ll die away

Like a building I will fall to the ground
Then what am I with only foundations?
And as the night falls and shadows creep,
The air is silent on my street
Lying in my bed, questions in my head
And it s all so, so quiet, quiet

Then skeletons come out to play
When my mind wonders and memories fade
Telling me I ll never win as I m betting
My last coins on the game, the game
So close that door, I ll seal the floors
And they ll die away

Skeletons, remind me, where I have been
Skeletons, remind me, what could have been
So close that door, I ll seal the floors

Then skeletons come out to play
When my mind wonders and memories fade
Telling me I ll never win as I m betting
My last coins on the game, the game
So close that door, I ll seal the floors
And they ll die away

Then skeletons come out to play
When my mind wonders and memories fade
