We were splitting up You split up instead You lost your head last night And your body came to bed Your face came back to haunt me When your body ran away I'd put them back together But together they won't stay Skeletons in the closet Ghosts out in the hall Rattling chains and spirit trains Won't let me sleep at all No rest for the stupid People standing on my toes I gave up things i should have kept My violin has got no bow I should have told you proper Laid out everything But you were pushing separate bedrooms And pulling all the strings Skeletons in the closet Ghosts out in the hall Rattling chains and spirit trains Won't let me sleep at all Been a long time without you Been a long and lonely lonely time Bitter tears have dried with years And now my eyes won't cry My god has beena comfort And i'm managing to cope Though i'm a swinging single Dangling from your rope Skeletons in the closet Ghosts out in the hall Rattling chains and spirit trains Won't let me sleep at all Skeletons in the closet Ghosts out in the hall Rattling chains and spirit trains Won't let me sleep at all
