Skeleton White
Words and Music by Patrick Harnish
I made my way through Mississippi yeah.
And they said I was a killer there.
I kept a locket of a lady's hair
And dumped her body in the Ohio.
When I get home at night
I dress in skeleton white
And dream of your bones.
I made my way through Oklahoma yes
And they said I was a devil there.
I took the skull of a lady - fair
And dumped her body in the Arkansas.
And when I get home at night
I lay in skeleton white
And dream of your bones.
Whoa oh oh.
The years come and they quickly go.
A family mourns and it hurts them so.
They pray to God just to let them know
Where in the hell did their babies go?
And when I get home at night
I dream of all those cries
And how you mourn for their bones.
Whoa oh oh.
I made my way through Arizona yeah.
I lost myself in the madness there.
I kept a skull because I liked its stare
And left the body in a shallow grave.
And when I get home at night
I dress in skeleton white
And lay with your bones.
Whoa oh oh.
The rain comes and the flesh it goes.
A family mourns and it hurts them so.
So they pray to God just to let them know
Are their babies buried somewhere cold?
And when I get home at night
I dream of all those cries
And how you mourn for their bones.
Whoa oh oh.
I made my way through California yes.
And kept a girl in the darkness there.
I spilled her blood and I drank my share.
I kept her body in the trunk of my car.
And when I get home at night
I dress her in skeleton white
And lay with her bones.
Whoa oh oh.
