Intro
All the remains of a cadaver of days
I keep hidden away, keep them there just in case
I want to visit that place and 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 veneers
Each a piece of my soul
Like 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 bat and a blade
Just 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
Just a body of years
Now a pile of bones
Like a sheet of veneers
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 but I'm an
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
Just a body of years
Now a pile of bones
Like a sheet of veneers
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
Ah ah ah ah ah
Solo over
