Skeletons Lyrics

I'm lost inside my thoughts,
no expression on my face
Reeling from my father's rage
and the anger inside his head.
Point a finger at the innocent,
yell how I'm to blame
for all your insecurities
and for your endless shame.

Does it make you feel better?
Does it ease the pain?
Does it help you feel secure
by acting so insane?

Don't lay your skeletons on me
Don't say I'm just like you.
Your secrets are excuses to hurt me,
but they can't excuse you.
Don't take your problems out on me
I'm not a mess like you.
Don't let your skeletons haunt me
They're only meant for you.

I'm numb from what he said
His venomous words stuck in my head.
My father won't get off my back
Just another malicious attack.

Does it make you feel better?
Does it ease the pain?
Does it help you feel secure
by acting so insane?

Don't lay your skeletons on me
Don't say I'm just like you.
Your secrets are excuses to hurt me,
but they can't excuse you.
Don't take your problems out on me
I'm not a mess like you.
Don't let your skeletons haunt me
They're only meant for you.
