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 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
Tell-tale diary pages, oh-oh, oh, oh
