**skeleton man meets the dust and rusts** his white bone is vacant of red. **skeleton man keeps a key in his pocket** It's a locket That stores his heart and soul. **skeleton man walks with a limp: an eerily timorous skip like some frightened child** he's a ghost That lives And never dies. **skeleton man's cheeks are hollow and his smile is splintered and his hugs are cold** he's old full of mold he's decaying. **skeleton man walks alone with the desert dust and the broken, wagon wheel and the black raven's croak and the dissidence of a million nights spent listening to imaginary voices in the wind forever and ever and ever and ever**

Skeleton Man
**skeleton man meets the dust and rusts** his white bone is vacant of red. **skeleton man keeps a key in his pocket** It's a locket That stores his heart and soul. **skeleton man walks with a limp: an eerily timorous skip like some frightened child** he's a ghost That lives And never dies. **skeleton man's cheeks are hollow and his smile is splintered and his hugs are cold** he's old full of mold he's decaying. **skeleton man walks alone with the desert dust and the broken, wagon wheel and the black raven's croak and the dissidence of a million nights spent listening to imaginary voices in the wind forever and ever and ever and ever**
