Skeleton Key
Unlocking Life's Doors: Skeleton Key by Buffalo Tom Explained
Lyrics
I am so seasick of being out to sea
I feel exhausted or overwhelmed by my current situation or circumstance.
It's got to be the worst thing
Being in this situation is possibly the most challenging experience I've faced.
That's ever happened to me
This situation is the worst thing that has happened to me.
But I've got my free pass
Despite feeling overwhelmed, I have a pass or a way out.
My skeleton key

I can open every door

That stands in front of me
