The Skeleton's Closet
Whispers in the Dark: Unveiling Secrets of The Skeleton's Closet
Lyrics
You tell your friends
You're telling your friends
It never happened, believe me
Insisting that something didn't occur, asking for belief
Embarrassed by
Feeling ashamed or uncomfortable about
This thing you've done
This action or event that you've carried out
Dug up the earth
Excavated the ground
Buried the body
Put a body in the ground
And now I'm an afterthought
Now I'm an insignificant consideration, no longer important
A skeleton
A forgotten and disregarded memory, like a skeleton in a closet
We share a secret
We both hold a hidden truth
Just once you kissed me
Once, you shared a kiss with me
I feel your breath
I sense your presence, your closeness
In the space before I sleep
Before I drift into slumber, I feel you
In the skeleton's closet
In the hidden or suppressed part of your past
You have my word
I pledge my commitment, I will uphold my word
I'll keep my promise
Expressing aloud in an empty space, perhaps seeking divine response
Cry out to an empty sky
To hear my plea or request
To hear my prayer
You've demeaned or devalued me
You cut me down
You've belittled me, made me feel insignificant
You make me worthless
Despite that, I feel a need to rescue you from your misery
But I need to rescue you
From your profound sadness or hopelessness
From your despair
No specific meaning conveyed in this line
We share a bond
We share an unbreakable connection
That shall not be broken
Even in the face of adversity, it won't fracture
Whisper your name
Calling out your name in the intense darkness
In the aching darkness
No specific meaning conveyed in this line
