skeleton (sped up)

I heard your skeleton breathe
Somewhere deep in the drive
Thought your silhouette gleamed
But the rearview lied
Then your seven digits creeped
In the back of my mind
Don't you know how bad I need you?

I heard your skeleton breathe
Somewhere deep in the drive
Saw your shadow burning deep
Through the streetlights shine
With the memory of you
Bleeding through the night
And if I close my eyes I see you

Fade in to view as I cruise down the backstreets
A violent hue burning blue in the backseat
With the glow of your bones igniting
Down this road with a silver lining

All the echoes of our conversations
Sam's Town playing on the radio station
Those harmonies that you once sang
They don't seem to sound the same

Although your memory is fading
I'm haunted by the cadence

I heard your skeleton breathe
Somewhere deep in the drive
Thought your silhouette gleamed
But the rearview lied
Then your seven digits creeped
In the back of my mind
Don't you know how bad I need you?

I heard your skeleton breathe
Somewhere deep in the drive
Saw your shadow burning deep
Through the streetlights shine
With the memory of you
Bleeding through the night
And if I close my eyes I see you

And taste your lips through the winds (Chanel)
As I blow a kiss to our crypt (farewell)
Then as the thunder meets the sky
On this vacant road I cry
(As I ask myself)
Did you find a new life?
Is it one that suits you right?
Should I call a spade a spade
And admit it's time to fold?
Since the diamonds have all faded
And this heart has grown cold

I heard your skeleton breathe
Somewhere deep in the drive
Thought your silhouette gleamed
But the rearview lied
Then your seven digits creeped
In the back of my mind
Don't you know how bad I need you?

I heard your skeleton breathe
Somewhere deep in the drive
Saw your shadow burning deep
Through the streetlights shine
With the memory of you
Bleeding through the night
And if I close my eyes I see you

Oh oh
Oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
