Skin & Bones Lyrics

Clarke Gilby Skin & Bones

(Gilby Clarke)
The last time I fell I left a piece of myself
I was so broken up, I should've stayed down
Heaven can't you help me I'm losing this war
I don't wanna die young from with just battle scars
Keep the devil out of my soul; c'mon and save me
From a heart of stone
Tell the Lord he can take me now, I'm a shell of a man
Just skin and bones
I had a little sister who could drink up a storm
If the liquor didn't kill her she'd be twenty-one
The good times, bad times can't remember them all
Must have been the thunder and alcohol
The skeletons in the closet keep me awake at night
The thing that really scares me are the monsters
I live with everyday
