Body Of Years

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 disappear

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 tripping 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 bag and a blade

It's 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

Body of years, 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 the weight of the diary pages

Tell-tale diary pages

Ah ha ah
