Skin and Bones - Cage The Elephant

Lyrics by：Cage The Elephant

Composed by：Cage The Elephant

Close my eyes and drift into the silence

Barely see the ultraviolet

Slipped and fell into the deep end

Oh the sidewalks shimmer just like diamonds

All the empty words were flying

Well the heart was low but I never was alone

I never was alone

I've been running for so long

All that's left is skin and bones

Close my eyes fight to carry on

Sometimes it makes no sense at all

If I stumble will I fall

If I fall I'll tuck and roll

Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home

Let the love light guide me home

Once the days evolve into another

I'm not getting any further

Left you feeling like a maniac

All the shining sidewalks they were lying

Lost myself while I was high and

The heart was low but I never was alone

I never was alone

I've been running for so long

All that's left is skin and bones

Close my eyes fight to carry on

Sometimes it makes no sense at all

If I stumble will I fall

If I fall I'll tuck and roll

Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home

Let the love light guide me home

Hearts are empty almost all the time

Blind devising ways to lead the line

And it seems as if there's no end in sight

I don't wanna be there when it all goes down

But if I gotta be there don't let me hit the ground

Can I hit the ground

I've been running for so long

All that's left is skin and bones

Close my eyes fight to carry on

Sometimes it makes no sense at all

If I stumble will I fall

If I fall I'll tuck and roll

Close my eyes and let the love light guide me home

Let the love light guide me home

Let the love light guide me home
