[Intro]
Sitting in my head, I've grown
I shook with notions I fed, warm bread
[Verse 1]
And if your skeletons
They refuse to walk
Oh, we can make them leave
If we just talk their talk
[Chorus]
I can't take it when you rattle my bones
But you're locked in a cage with me
And you can't stand it when you're all alone
But you've gone and thrown away the key
The moonshine's dripping from the white of your eye
But your lips are too scared to speak
The whisper's singing you a lullaby
But it can't put you to sleep
[Verse 2]
Sitting in my head, I've grown
I'm scared in this happiness I've met
But I'm pleased to meet you
I'm not pleased
[Bridge]
Cause I won't make you stay awake
If you can't go out tonight
Tonight, tonight
And all your demons dissipate
If you could just turn off the lights
Tonight, tonight
[Verse 3]
And if your lonely bones
They would stop to think
Oh, all the xylophones would decline the drink
[Chorus]
I can't take it when you rattle my bones
But you're locked in a cage with me
And you can't stand it when you're all alone
But you've gone and thrown away the key
The moonshine's dripping from the white of your eye
But your lips are too scared to speak
The whisper's singing you a lullaby
But it can't put you to sleep
[Outro]
Laying in my bed, I've known
I tip toe while I tread
Tonight, let's sleep
