I'll stay right here
With all these familiar faces
And shutout everyone else
From the world we created
Instead of becoming the sick and twisted
I'll lose myself in a song again

[Chorus]
There's nothing wrong
In being far from right
Another skeleton song
Stuck in my head all night
And there's something wrong
When everything goes right
Another skeleton song
Will save my life tonight

Was it that hard, to open the door for faith
When everyone feels the same
A different face but on the same page
We don't need something
That hurts more than nothing
So I lose myself in a song again

[Chorus]

So I try my best to see how you can relate to so much grief
Never stop forgetting why it is you came here
For awhile it seems to be,
It's all you ever think and sleep
Just reach back for me, I'll find another place to go

    What is a body without a skeleton? a formless mass withering and writhing on the ground, on the dirt. A skeleton enables you to stand, to take a stand, to make a stand, to live. Music is the writer's life, and it is so that he feels it is the best way to convey his emotions, the way he feels. "So I lose myself in a song again" says it all for me. This is one of those tricky songs, it's so well-written that I cannot simply "sum it up". You have to listen to this song instead of hear it, i believe it's there you will find your own interpretation of it. "There's nothing wrong In being far from right"...
