lyrics

i waited for an MRI
to count the bugs inside my mind
the spiders catch the flies
but when they die
who am I?

there’s a skeleton
buried underneath my skin
i’ve known about it for a long time
i don’t know what I am going to do about him
there’s a skeleton
living underneath my skin

you hold my hand
and try to say
there’s nothing wrong, that I’m okay
i hope you’re right
but you don’t know
how deep the skeleton grows

there’s a skeleton
living underneath my skin
i’ve known about it for a long time
i don’t know what I am gonna do about him

there’s a skull inside my head skin
and bones inside my limbs
there’s a tall and creepy skeleton
living underneath my skin

and i have seen the bones
i’ve seen the way it goes
my spine is bent and i
am just a pile of bones
i try to walk but there
are cracks inside my bones
i’ve seen the bones, I’ve seen my bones

i tried to speak
but caught my teeth
on creatures living in my cheeks
the insects have survived
but when they die
who am i?

i’m a skeleton
living underneath this skin
i’ve thought about it for a long time
i don’t know what I would ever do about it
there’s a skeleton
living underneath my skin
