Skeletons

I'm lost inside my thoughts
No expression on my face
Reeling from my father's rage
And the anger inside his head
Point a finger at the innocent
Yell how I'm to blame
For all your insecurities
And for your endless shame

Does it make you feel better?
Does it ease the pain?
Does it help you feel secure
By acting so insane?

Don't lay your skeletons on me
Don't say I'm just like you
Your secrets are excuses to hurt me
But they can't excuse you
Don't take your problems out on me
I'm not a mess like you
Don't let your skeletons haunt me
They're only meant for you

I'm numb from what he said
His venomous words stuck in my head
My father won't get off my back
Just another malicious attack

Does it make you feel better?
Does it ease the pain?
Does it help you feel secure
By acting so insane?
Don't lay your skeletons on me
Don't say I'm just like you
Your secrets are excuses to hurt me
But they can't excuse you
Don't take your problems out on me
I'm not a mess like you
Don't let your skeletons haunt me
They're only meant for you
