Calling All Skeletons (Matt's Home Demos) Songtext
von Alkaline Trio

Here it is again yet, it stings like the first time
Seems it never ends, double nickels on your dime
I thought we were friends, I guess it just depends who you ask
These feelings tend to leave me with a hole in my chest
Ho-ho-ho-hole, a hole in my chest
Yeah, a ho-ho-ho-hole, a hole in my chest

Now, the time has come, I just wish I could erase all the damage done to your name and your keepsakes
It′s only just begun, it's been fun, we were blind, deaf and dumb
There′s a party in my closet calling all skeletons, oh
Ske-e-e, all skeletons
Calling all

Where did you go, as the lights went black?
Look what's become of me
I've grown to love your disappearing acts
Do one more pretty, please


Now, the time has come, I just wish I could erase all the damage done, all this pain, all this heartache
Only just begun, it′s been fun, we were fucked up and numb
There′s a killer on the corner, and he's looking for love
He′s lo-o-o, He's looking for love
Yeah, he′s looking for (you my love)

Where did you go as the lights went black?
Look what's become of me
I′ve grown to love your disappearing acts
Do one more pretty, please

And to tell you the truth, I lost my faith in you
(You gotta stop sneaking off on me)
And these unspoken lies appear at the worst times
(You gotta stop sneaking off on me)
They're hiding just behind your eyes (your eyes, your eyes, your eyes, your eyes)

Where did you go as the lights went black?
Look what's become of me
I′ve grown to love your disappearing acts
Do one more pretty, please

Where did you go as the lights went black?
You nearly gave us heart attack
We thought you might′ve swam out to sea
You gotta stop sneaking off on me
You gotta stop sneaking off on me
