lirik lagu tal (alternative) - skeletons
[verse 1]
i thought that i could hold my own
i mean, you shouldn’t feel like you’re behind enemy lines
inside of your own home
but every time that i’m alone
i feel as stable as dust
subject to wherever that wind blows
and my mind pretends that this is a new home
and i’m just that curious kid that just wants to know where
every door and passageway go
but i’ve been living up here for 26 years so, i know
i know what lies behind these doors all to well
most of them are great
but i don’t open those much, so i couldn’t tell
you see the door that i know all too well
is this little closet at the end of the hallway
it welcomes me like a holiday but always leaves me feeling like h~ll
and history has given me countless reasons
of why i should avoid it at all costs
yet it seems my countless demons
continue to contradict that with addictive thoughts
and before i can stop
i find myself hesitantly opening that door~lock
i glance back as if it’s too late, it’s not
but i’ve let this thought become an action
and now this action’s gaining traction
and as i twist the handle
and they all come crashing out
skeletal hands surround
trying to pull me down
i turn, trying to close the door
or at least scream for some help
but there’s a vice grip around my neck, so nothing comes out
i try to run, but the deed has already been done
it was a choice that i made
now i’m going to fall prey to the skeletons
[verse 2]
and now i’m struggling to breathe
but i keep quiet so that n0body sees me
n0body needs to see these skeletal beings fighting to death
to keep hold of me
i make promises i can’t keep
i’m a zombie by day, because at night i don’t sleep
embarrassment is my camoflauge
i don’t hold hands, cuz of my damaged flaws
i need the hand of god
i need a hand of god
i don’t need a hand, i’m all good
for the millionth time i whisper this lie to myself
as i push the hands back
and slam the door on this h~ll, exhausted
i stagger to the end of the hallway
breathing a sigh of relief
just another’s day work
utterly isolated, thinking
“what could be wrong with my nature?”
i mean, how else does one get picked for this great curse
disoriented and lost
i make my escape towards the first door that i find
turn the key, twist the kn~b
only to reveal the army of skeletons behind, no
i didn’t mean to go back
i didn’t mean to go back
i can’t last another attack
i’m falling victim to my present
all because of my past
i’m falling prey to the skeletons
[verse 3]
so, all i see are ruined reputations, scandals, and defeat
not that i failed to plan, it’s just my plans failed me
scratch that
cuz i’m done with these cycles of saying sorry
no more falling prey to the other side’s army
s.o.s
i need support
i need more than my words can say
i need words that can change
the kind of words that made this world in six days
and just then i heard him
from a voice like a friend
full of confidence and love
it was the voice a parent uses when enough is enough
and he said “his grace is enough
he’s sufficient for me
that his power is made perfect whenever i am weak”
and if that’s what makes me free
then i will scream about my weakness
so his power will always walk with me
this will no longer be the sound of me being beat down
this is the sound of me rebounding
the sound of me coming back to life
like a former addict who says he’s got a new lease on life
or the sound of a soldier coming home to his wife
or hearing the momma scream when the doctor says
“your baby’s gonna make it through the night”
this is favor
that we don’t deserve
saving grace that you cannot put into words
so it’s time to open my closet doors
and let the light shine through
‘cuz i want you to know
that you aren’t alone in your struggle too
[outro]
you see
a secret is only a secret as long as you’re willing to keep it
and freedom will only come when you release it
i need you to believe it
