about

Music and lyrics by Daniel Collins (ASCAP) and Joshua P. Murtha (ASCAP).

lyrics

Too many skeletons in your closet
you’ve kept them locked away for years
in that small dark room where you deposit
a lifetime’s worth of hope and fears

Open up the doors and show your past the light of day
and all the hurtful history you’ve tried to keep at bay
will crumble into dust and ash and then be swept away

It can’t hurt you now...

They’re hung on hangers, stacked in piles
In the corners of your mind
The bones of half-truths and denials
you hoped no one would ever find

I don't know why I've waited for so long, behind the eyes and behind the songs
