Ugly, I'm so very ugly
I'm ugly inside and out
There's no denying
Love me, why would you ever love me
No one has ever loved me yet, pretty baby
Skeleton key
It won't open up
It won't open any lock I have on me
Rusted, bent and rusted
Your [?] skeleton key
I spent my life trying every way to die
Is it my fate to be the last one standing?
Don't you know it's a crime
All the shadowy peaks I've climbed
And I have yet to ever be remanded
Yeah, I have yet to ever be remanded
Holy, holy
All of your religions are a lie
Hold me, don't you try to hold me
I'll clearly see my own way to the other side
Yes, I will make my own way to the other side
Crying, quit your crying
Sun will likely rise again tomorrow
If you follow me down through the underground
I would hook the lease upon your collar
Nothing good is sustained
I gladly accept the blame
But all my words won't add up to a dollar
Yes, all my words won't add up to a dollar
Love me, don't say that you love me
Nobody has ever loved me yet, pretty baby
Crying, quit your crying
I have ten-thousand tears that you can borrow
Come on, follow me down
Through the underground
And I will sing to you a song of sorrow
I will sing to you a sweet, straight song of sorrow
I will sing you all the sweet, straight song of sorrow
I will sing you all the sweet, straight song of sorrow
Skeleton key
Skeleton key, bent and rusted
All of your dreams are locked away
The hands have stopped on the timekeeper's clock
And you have got to learn to breathe underwater
Yeah, you have got to breathe and breathe underwater
Skeleton key, bent and rusted
As broken as the heart the dirt has eaten
Love me, don't pretend to love me
I've lost enough to know when I am beaten
I've lost enough to know when I've been beaten
I've lost enough to know when I've been beaten
Yes, I've lost enough to know when I've been beaten
