Skeletons - Lyrics by Xtc


Lyrics

I was following adventure, nothing mattered
And i knew best
I had a blood in my head, no one could shake it
Cause i knew best
But now i find
Remains of people that i left behind
I never took them wise
And now the skeletons tell me hit me now and then
Here come the skeletons to say i told you so again
Wish i'd done things differently
Cause skeletons don't set you free

I'd make a life for myself, i'd be a bigshot
Cause i knew best
I had high expectations, i was headstrong
And i knew best
All of my friends knew
What i was doing to the loving few
I know it's hard to chew
Cause now the skeletons tell me hit me now and then
Here come the skeletons to say i told you so again
Wish i'd done things differently
Cause skeletons don't set you free

Well, all i wanted was fame to feed my ego
And i knew best
Cause when you're high on success you get impressed
And i knew best

I knew best
