Skeleton

That skeleton that you

That you call yourself

Rattles out some syllables

Formed of the cylinder in your mouth

Suck, squeeze, bang, blow

It's all part of your show

You laugh at the sad parts

But the meaning you ignore

You can laugh at me

All that you want

But what you want

Isn't what you need

You laugh at me

With my inadequacies

But you can cry in my arms

Whenever you want

That skeleton that you

(skeleton that)

That you drag down the stairs

(drag down the stairs)

Rattles as it cackles

(rattles as)

Like a cowering jackel

Pretend not to care

You can laugh at me

All that you want

But what you want

Isn't what you need

You laugh at me

With my inadequacies

You can cry in my arms

Whenever you...

You can laugh at me

All that you want

But what you want

Isn't what you need

You can laugh at me

With my inadequacies

But you can cry in my arms

Whenever you want
