Lyrics atlas – skeletons

A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up, get the broom

Yo
All these skeletons they pile in my closet like articles
Of clothing that don’t fit me anymore that I can’t part with
So I guess I’ll have to live with them until the day my vision’s
In a state that’s far from livable and I can just forget you know
For now I’m living with some bones on my bed
Cause mistakes that I’ve made are like colognes on my flesh
Smell it when I walk by
This home for regret
I pretend is a body
Is so close to death
By asphyxiation
Since, I’m choking on my words
But if you leave me in the streets I’ll be floating to the curb
Hopelessly absurd
In the vocals that I slur
Through the copious occurrences of hopelessness I learn from
Every mistake is a lesson to me
So I feel like failure is an infectious disease
And these bones on my back only less than a tease
Of success that I see when these skeletons flee
I got a lot of

A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up, get the broom
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up

Yo, yo
But, lately I wouldn’t say its unbearable
I wouldn’t say that it was terrible
I think I found myself a formula and now its taken care of
So my closet space is safe for every memory I barely know is mine
So when times come I’m barely close to fine
I can open up the door and expect scary scenes of fright
When the hinges creak and bend at least
I’ll find my piece of mind
Cause it’s the only thing I won’t leave behind
Switch up
Everyone I see is just so damn interesting
Everyone I see is just so damn cool
Following the trends they see from friends and even enemies
I swear to God I see these doppelgangers at my school
So I might
Bury skeletons inside of my irrelevance
And live my life in fear that I have sub-par intelligence
But at least these raps speak and show my state of mind
In a totally original way that’s mine, right?

A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up, get the broom
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up
Yo, yo
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up, get the broom
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
A lot of skeletons I keep in my room
A lot of skeletons I lock in my closet
Sweep em up, sweep em up
Yo, yo
