Skeleton Key

I got a skeleton in my closet
keep it locked out of view
it never bothered me ‘cause I got the key
but now you babe
you got the skeleton key
you got the skeleton key
you got the skeleton key.

I weave a tangled web of twisted lies
I can’t remember the truth
I’m pretty sure that you’re
the only one who knows
what I do babe
you got the power to see
you got my memory
you got a skeleton key.

Saturday night I watched you watch me
fumble around in my dreams
I’m giving myself completely to you
now you get a front row seat
you can watch yourself in my dreams
you get a skeleton key.

Monday morning clear and bright
you threw me back my key
you walked away and I heard you say
now you babe
you get the skeleton key
you keep the skeleton key
you got the skeleton key.
