The skeletons in your closet
Will one day come outside
From the past into the present
From which you cannot hide
You can keep us in the dark
And I know that is your hope
But you can't avoid detection
Underneath the microscope

The skeletons in your closet
Tend to make you paranoid
You're afraid that they'll reveal
What you're hoping to avoid
I know you've heard it said
That you can run but cannot hide
And the proof of that assertion is
It cannot be denied

The skeletons in your closet
Are crying out real loud
Saying you can't keep us quiet
Just because you are not proud
You see much sooner, if not later
We'll have to be heard
So why try to prevent us
From having the last word
