Skeletons
Skeletons in my closet that threaten to break out,
And I know when I see them I'll be too scared to shout.
Memories so painful I keep them locked away,
And when they show their teeth I can't help but be afraid.
A darkness so deep I try to steer clear,
But when I step in oh the voices I hear.
Voices so loud they drown themselves out,
And I know once I listen I'll be too gone to shout.
