Skeleton Man

Please let me introduce myself
I don't know who I am
But I can tell you one thing
That's that I understand.
That sometimes something happens
and you gotta change your plans.
But you better be aware
you got my heart in your hands.
I've seen this all
Long ago
but I don't remember when
I took a fall
my heart was broke
and I lost all of my friends.
Made a call
but I could feel my throat
collapsing from within
And then you came along
and robbed me of my skin.
I'm a skeleton man
I'm a skeleton man
and I want you in my coffin with me
I'm a skeleton man
I'm a skeleton man
and I want you in my coffin with me.
I used to think that you did this to me.
but now I see
I used to think that you did this to me.
and now I see
There you are
sitting all alone
by yourself
head to toe
dripping in the past
sipping through your mask
any odd or chance
that you might be asked
about the man
with boney hands
he watched you dance
you stole a glance
you stole a kiss
you broke his fist
when you try to hand
him a promise.
I'm a skeleton man
I'm a skeleton man
and I want you in my coffin with me
I'm a skeleton man
I'm a skeleton man
and I want you in my coffin with me
I'm a skeleton man
I'm a skeleton man
and I want you in my coffin with me
I'm a skeleton man
I'm a skeleton man
and I want you in my coffin with me
I guess I could go and forgive you
(for all the things you've done)
I said I guess I could go and forgive
(but that wouldn't be as much fun.)
(I'm a skeleton man.)

The Ghost Who Danced
02:57

I met a ghost
She doesn't see me
I always remember
That she
liked to dance
Oh my god
I'm dreaming fast
about her dress she wore
was black.
But she was see through.
I wish I could go back to there,
with you.
Another chance to dance
with you
Maybe not this time.
She moves my toys.
She always scares off all the boys.
I know she's got
somewhere important to be.
But I don't think that she made it.
And now she follows me around.
And reminds me
to work on my footwork.
She says that I can't dance anymore
but the jokes on her
I never could.
Let me take you away
To the place that I call home.
I promise that I learned to dance
when you were gone.

The Day After

Let me walk along the road my friend.
Let me look at all the things we've done.
Can I ask you a question?
Do you still sing the songs we sung?
(kinda doubt it.)
Do you think about the way we've lived?
Do you think about the man you were?
Do you ever wonder what would happen
if your life had taken different turns?
Oh I don't know what you do,
I don't know where you would go.
But I can guess that you would be
about the same.
(Yeah probably be the same.)
Do you think about me now and then?
Do you think about the yards we ran through?
I can still hear the angry man.
I can still see the moms we ran to.
(love you mama)
Oh I don't know what I would do,
I don't know where I would go
If I had never met a boy
quite like you.

Just a Kid

Let me run
if you can't catch me
I can slow down
if you ask me.
Push me farther
if you want to
I don't think
you are going to.
I might be just a young kid
But I can still count to ten
and I don't care if you want me
to do this again and again.
If you ask me politely
I might be a little more quiet.
I might rub my eyes
and ask if this is what you meant?
I don't care what you say to me
I don't want anything to be.
I don't have any expectations
Please can you say why does he?
I don't have any nightmares yet
I don't have any sick regrets
I don't care what you say to me
I don't want anything to be.
I might be just a young kid
But I can still count to ten.
And I don't care if you want
me to do this again and again.
I don't think I ever will
Go off and leave my own world
I don't think I could grow up
If I wanted.

Reunion Letter

Back in high school
Yeah I thought you were so cool.
I made that mistake.
I was always
in the back of the class room
You might not remember my name.
Please let me explain myself
I swear I don't think about you anymore.
I just thought that I would let you know
Incase you didn't already:
You might think that
you're all that baby.
But let me tell you
you're not.
You might think that
I'm down right crazy.
Well let me tell you
I'm not.
I can tell you that you hurt my friends.
Pushed them down and kicked again.
They tell me everything.
Now you're gonna go and change the end.
Make yourself look young again.
Maybe if I try real hard.
I can move on
I think that you can too.
I don't think all our mistakes
are really gonna be an issue.
That was back then
and this is right now
I might've held a little tight
because I think that I miss you
I can move on
I think that you can too.
I don't think all our mistakes
are really gonna be an issue.
That was back then
and this is right now
I might've held a little tight
because honestly I hate you.
You might think that
you're all that baby.
But let me tell you
you're not.
You might think that
I'm down right crazy.
Well let me tell you
I'm not.

Falling through space
I don't see
How you can replace
All I've seen
I don't think you hate
All you've been
I don't think you hate
What you did.
Falling through space
I cant hear
I don't touch but taste
All your fears
The look on your face
so sincere
I promise you this
Oh I swear
That you can look into my eyes
And see that I'm just a little boy,
Waiting for his ride.
Yeah you can look into my eyes
And try to find a better reason
For all the things I do.
I'd like to show you this
This is what it sounds like
In my brain
I've got this whole barrage
of shitty songs
That remain nameless
so I cant even look them up
To try to hear them make them stop
I don't think that they'll ever end
But that's ok it's who I am.
I know I can be weird
I can be all over the place
I can be loud, I can be quiet
I can be in your face.
I don't know why I'm like this
but I don't want to change.
I hope that you can understand
I only do this to make you happy
I never really know who you are
But that's ok with me
I hope that you can understand
I only do this to make you happy
I never really know who you are
But that's ok with me.
It's as if you were
a ghost that I
can't get rid of
or exercise
You always want
the best from me
and yet you never
acknowledge my
best attempts to
write this shit down
all these songs inside my head
I swear that I still have more
I guess you'll have to wait to see what's next.

If you ever find yourself walking down a street
and see a man selling a horse.
Don't let that man walk away from you.
He's gonna try to sell you that horse!
And all I can tell you is,
where would you put it,
where would you put it,
where would you put it,
if you bought a horse?
where would you put it,
where would you put it,
where would you put it,
if you bought a horse?
Maybe think about that next time.
I bought a horse.
Every time I see that man
I can't help but buy a horse.
And every time i see him
again and again and again
he keeps asking me the same thing.
Where do you put them?
Where do you put them?
Where do you put all these horses that you buy?
Where do you put them?
Where do you put them?
Where do you put all these horses that you buy?
I never know what to tell him
I don't even know where I keep the horses myself.
Myself!
Who would've known.
Put your foot in a rabbit hole.
See if it comes out the other side just the same.
AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHyeah
WOOAAHHHHAAHHHHyeahh
AAAHHHHHHHHOHHOHHAAHHHHyeahohhh
(put)
(your)
(foot)
(in to)
(the rabbit hole.)
(put)
(your)
(foot)
(in to)
(the rabbit)
(rabbit)
(rabbit)
(hole.)
When you step outside
and you want to believe
that all of the things that you've done to yourself are
no trouble.
When you wake up cold
and you want to see
that everything that you spend money on is
double bubble.
I think I want something.
I think I want something from you.
I think I want an apple to bite into!
