Dolores O'Riordan - Skeleton Lyrics






I tried to face it
I tried to erase it
I tried to race it
I can't erase it

Driving in the slow lane
Watching everybody shooting by
In the fast lane, in the fast lane
Sitting here beside me
There is a shadow from my past
In the front seat I can heart my heartbeat
Faster, faster, faster, faster, faster

I tried to face it
I can't erase it
So I must face it
I must embrace it

I have wasted my time
Dwelling in the shadows from the past
In the front seat did you hear my heartbeat
Forward to the future I must move on I will let go
To the future
That's where I will soar
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher

So I can face it
Then I will chase it
I will embrace it

You can't outrun your skeleton
No way, No way
You can't outrun your skeleton
No way, No way
Oh
No way, No way
Oh
No way, No way
Oh
No way, No way
Oh

In the corner of the room
I tried to face it
In the corner of the room
I must embrace it
In the corner of the room
And I will chase it
In the corner of the room
I will embrace it

  1. 2.... ....

    This album is so great when I'm driving.

  2. M.... ....

    This song is addicting.

    M.... ....

    All her songs are hits! She was genius of music

  3. D.... R....

    This whole album (cd) this precious creature is screaming for help! What the fuck people! People having mental health issues in our society get negligence handed to them on a silver platter. "Don't you see its not me its not my family." That's our attitude, she was so right, God help us. My heart bleeds for you Dolores

  4. A.... W....

    I love this song very much, RIP Dolores

  5. k.... ....

    R.I.P Dolores 😭she was a great singer.

  6. M.... M....

    Beatifull ❤🌼

  7. J.... ....

    why wasn't this a single lol

    J.... ....

    Because it touches a very personal topic for her: her child abuse.

    J.... ....

    Ikr. The sheep never take their blinders off.

  8. l.... j....

    I LOVE DOLORES O'RIORDAN but i think she should explore another rhythms (like mirror lover or the sun does rise) SHE IS EXACTLY THE SAME THAN THE CRANBERRIES  she is stucked

    l.... j....

    i know but she needs make an evolution on her music...

    l.... j....

    but this sounds so diferent from Cranberries! :)

    l.... j....

    She made an album with D.A.R.K. (Andy Rourke from The Smiths + Dolores sharing vocal duties with her boyfriend on every song), 'Science agress'. They sound very new wave, with lots of synths and electronic sounds.

    l.... j....

    Everyone has an internal rhythm. Its part of ur dna so of course there is cranberries sound. Its not like Tori Amos was the lead singer. Dolores will have her way. Which is exactly how it should be. She was true to her art never changed to be a hit maker when she left cranberries and dif her solo stuff. Good for her and God bless her family. Miss you Dolores. ❤🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀

    l.... j....

    Wout Vl ikr

  9. M.... G....

    As always she rocks! Sing forever Dolores!

  10. S.... ....

    Yes, the lead singer.

  11. s.... ....

    So AWESOME!!!

  12. J.... O....

    i was afraid of listening to this album now i realize that i waited too much time. XD

  13. K.... A....

    No way...God! i couldn't love more that part!! :D.....but i love more IN THE CORNER OF THE ROOM! :D.....

  14. U.... ....

    amazing

  15. R.... ....

    This song sounds so much like a Cranberries song.

    R.... ....

    Her second solo album was in The Cranberries' style

  16. A.... D....

    @Vindrag I thinks this should be a single, and then be careful. Then for the 3th single i would choose a calm one like fly though. Sorry i don't speak english :p

  17. J.... P....

    Listen to this song and any song of the "Bury the hatchet" from Cranberries and you will easily understand that Dolores and Cranberries are one and the same...
    Perfect!

  18. I.... ....

    @spiros2000 check out for Lisa Gerrard or Azam Ali. Dolores has an amazing voice, but these two women i listed are also amazing.

  19. i.... ....

    Shes coming to Izmir (Turkey) tooo and that is so exciting for me..she has gained a little kilos which has made her seem lot much better

  20. C.... ....

    still my favorite :)

  21. T.... W....

    this song and It's You are my favorites from No Baggage, but the whole album is great!

  22. V.... ....

    This should have been the first single!
    Her "screamings" from the No way No way part to the painful end is so touching!!!

    Love her for this!
    The voice is outstanding!!!
