"Skeletons" lyrics

"Skeletons"

Whenever it's sundown with nowhere to go
I'm running from the dead of night
So I drive down a lonely road
Praying for the morning light
I see my shadows in the rear view
Waving like the sky was blue
'Cause every time I turn on the news
I get a ring side seat to hell, I get a preview

We live in a world gone mad that's lost control
What doesn't kill us leaves a hole in our soul
Chase a satellite, get lost in outer space
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Fighting wars within
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Lonely skeletons

I drive a thousand miles of highway lies
But I never could read the signs
So I drift sideways going back in the grave
Praying that my stars align
I see my shadows in the rear view
Waving like the sky was blue
But from the gallows, they remind you
We're all just passing through

We live in a world gone mad that's lost control
What doesn't kill us leaves a hole in our soul
Chase a satellite, get lost in outer space
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Fighting wars within
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Lonely skeletons

We're fighting a war, a war within
We're losing ourselves the more we spin
We're only human
We are broken skeletons

We live in a world gone mad that's lost control
What doesn't kill us leaves a hole in our soul
Chase a satellite, get lost in outer space
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Fighting wars within
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Lonely skeletons
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Lonely skeletons
We're only human, we're flesh and bone
Lonely skeletons
