All the remains of a cadaver of days,
|
I keep hidden away, keep them there just in case.
|
I wanna visit that place,
|
blow the dust from the bones
|
off a body of years that I leave all alone.
|
Just a body of years,
|
|
See the skin disappears
|
and the blood turns to stone
|
in a body of years now a pile of bones.
|
Like a sheet of veneer
|
each a piece of my soul.
|
It's a body of years that I leave all alone.
|
|
It's Just a body of years, now a pile of bones.
|
You know.
|
Old soul who falls down
|
can't stop trippin' on these
|
Old roads I go down
|
get back up and get my foot in the door,
|
and my face on the page
|
make my mark in the world
|
with a bat and a blade.
|
It's a body of work that you can't ever change
|
like a body of years that you take to your grave.
|
It's just a body of years that I leave all alone.
|
It's just a body of years, now a pile of bones.
|
Like a sheet of veneer,
|
Each a piece of my soul.
|
|
Old soul who falls down
|
Can't stop tripping on these
|
Old roads I go down
|
Get back up and I'm a
|
Old soul who falls down
|
Can't stop tripping on these
|
Old roads.
|
|
It's just a body of years that I leave all alone,
|
It's just a body of years, now a pile of bones.
|
Like a sheet of veneer,
|
Each a piece of my soul.
|
Like a pile of shit I can't seem to forget.
|
Just a body of years that I leave all alone.

Tell-tale diary pages
|
They unveil a ghost from the ages
|
When bodies of years were breaking from all of the weight
|
Of diary pages
