about

Putting the skeletons from your closet to use, a past you thought was dead and buried gets called up from the grave to come after you. An external tormentor is raising an army of skeletons made of secrets and shame to conquer the once-peaceful kingdom of your life and psyche.

lyrics

I'm taking my life in my own hands tonight,
holding dear Life by a thread...
All them bones
are like a crown on my head!

All alone, feeling surrounded
You're all alone, hearing shadows
Shake them bones
out of the cupboard and use them bones.

Block that Sun out with a cloud
Just try to block the Sun out, dark as night
Take them bones
and make a fire your light them bones!

RAISE THEM BONES from the earth!
RAISE THEM BONES like a flower!
Turn the rocks and dirt and uncover more bones!

RAISE THEM BONES like a flower!
RAISE THEM BONES out of the ground
Until every dirty little one of them is found!

'Cause I'm taking my life in my own hands tonight,
holding dear Life by a thread...
All them bones
are like a crown on my head!

Everything you ever promised to me
and everything you didn't do
and all them bones will come a-runnin' for you!

All them bones
will come crashing on you!
