“Skeletons” is a turning point in New Years Day’s discography: it illustrates emotional vulnerability and frustration without falling back on the band’s usual heavy sound. It was inspired by the early days of frontwoman Ash Costello’s romance with now-fiancé Jimmy Trigger, and plays on the phrase “s...
Skeletons Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wanna get closer to where you hide
I wanna see further into your eyes
I wanna go deeper into what you deny
I wanna keep falling until there's no light
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't fear the dark, show me all your scars
I wanna know who you are
(I wanna know who you are)
I don't fear the dark, give me all your heart
I wanna know who you are
[Chorus]
Show me the skeletons in your closet
Don't wanna play pretend or ignore
All of the skeletons, they will haunt us
Let me in, let me in, I want more
[Verse 2]
I wanna uncover what nobody knows
Where all of your secrets are taking control
All of the shadows are beautiful
Don't need to keep hiding, it's time to let go, oh-oh-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't fear the dark, show me all your scars
I wanna know who you are
[Chorus]
Show me the skeletons in your closet
Don't wanna play pretend or ignore
All of the skeletons, they will haunt us
Let me in, let me in, I want more
Show me the skeletons in your closet
Don't wanna play pretend or ignore
All of the skeletons, they will haunt us
Let me in, let me in, I want more
[Bridge]
Show me all your lies
Show me where you hide
[Chorus]
Show me the skeletons in your closet
Don't wanna play pretend or ignore
All of the skeletons, they will haunt us
Let me in, let me in, I want more
[Outro]
Show me the skeletons
Show me the skeletons
In your closet (In your closet)
In your closet (In your closet)
All of the skeletons
All of the skeletons
Let me in, let me in, I want more

I love heavy riffs. I love headbanging. I love jumping. I love heavy riffage, but I just felt like what New Years Day never had was a sing-along, fun chorus with a cool tag. It was always more about ‘how can I say my feelings in the chorus?’ Who c...
What was the inspiration for the song?
Frontwoman Ash Costello told Alternative Press:
This is the first song we wrote for the record. It’s like a year-and-a-half or two years old. I started writing for the record around January of 2017. It was around the time I was in a new relationship with Jimmy [Trigger, now fiancee], and he’s not a...
