Skeletons,Demons and Ghosts
Just words at this point. I usually write hearing a melody but this time it hasn't come yet. Maybe its just a poem? Anyway-
My skeletons cant be justified
No dignity nor shame
If they had the chance to speak
They'd whisper just the same
Courage twisted up real tight
Pushed down deep inside
Lives beside two mortal sins
Jealousy and pride
I stand here just spinning
Staring up at the sky
Time keeps unwinding
I'm asking reasons why
There is no reason why
There is no reason why
My demons can't be pacified
With wickedness or tears
I try to run and hide away
They always smell the fear
Staring down the rabbit hole
Trying not to leap
Every time I close my eyes
Pray my soul to keep
I stand here just spinning
Staring up at the sky
Time keeps unwinding
I'm asking reasons why
There is no reason why
There is no reason why
The ghosts have now all vaporized
Lost to wind and time
All the rest were passers by
Faces undefined
Reflections of old memories
Stories of old wars
Scars that pass as better times
Truths that beg for more
I stand here just spinning
Staring up at the sky
Time keeps unwinding
I'm asking reasons why
There is no reason why
There is no reason why
My skeletons cant be justified
No dignity nor shame
If they had the chance to speak
They'd whisper just the same
Courage twisted up real tight
Pushed down deep inside
Lives beside two mortal sins
Jealousy and pride
I stand here just spinning
Staring up at the sky
Time keeps unwinding
I'm asking reasons why
There is no reason why
There is no reason why
My demons can't be pacified
With wickedness or tears
I try to run and hide away
They always smell the fear
Staring down the rabbit hole
Trying not to leap
Every time I close my eyes
Pray my soul to keep
I stand here just spinning
Staring up at the sky
Time keeps unwinding
I'm asking reasons why
There is no reason why
There is no reason why
The ghosts have now all vaporized
Lost to wind and time
All the rest were passers by
Faces undefined
Reflections of old memories
Stories of old wars
Scars that pass as better times
Truths that beg for more
I stand here just spinning
Staring up at the sky
Time keeps unwinding
I'm asking reasons why
There is no reason why
There is no reason why
