can i play a song for you?
i really liked this idea on another blog (you know who you are) so i'm stealing it - i'll put a new song here whenever the mood strikes.
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
wait what was that last one
let's go back to the previous song
