Everybody Knows (The Family Skeleton)

Everybody Knows (The Family Skeleton) - Spencer Day

I'm frozen like a photo

A sepia-colored picture

Voices in the hall

Line the flower on the wall

Me n Isabella playin' the piano

Melodies we pen that may never come again

But oh when I hear them call

It won't come to no good

There's no way that it could

And though I know I go

'cause I gotta keep savin' face

So I try to fight it

I deny it baby now everyone knows

And I just can't hide it unrequited

'cause I want a love of my own

And though we never talk about it baby everybody knows

Me in Isabella fakin' the piano

But we'll improvise 'til they cut us down to size

Girls in Easter dresses somebody confesses

I'm wakin' from a dream life is never what it seems

But oh when the rumors float and the weight of the past

Has you tied to the mast

When nobody wants to know then you gotta keep playin' straight

So I try to fight it

I deny it baby now everyone knows

And I just can't hide it unrequited

'cause I want a love of my own

But my brutal little truth is the enemy of you

It's a thorn around the rose and so we'll never talk about it

But baby everybody knows

All of the secrets and skeletons hide 'em away

Lock 'em up tight

Up in the attic and out of my sight

Quiet I'm livin' a wonderful life

Now everyone knows

Now there wasn't any proof

Just a certain ring of truth

So we'll keep the closet closed

And though we never talk about it baby everybody knows

Everybody knows

Everybody knows

Everybody knows
