Mother Mother - Body of Years lyrics
[Mother Mother - Body of Years lyrics]
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
(body of years, body of years)
Can't stop tripping on these
(body of years, body of years)
Old roads (body of years, body of years)
(Body of years, 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
Telltale diary pages
They unveil a ghost from the ages
When bodies of years
Were breaking from all of the weight
Of diary pages telltale diary pages, oh, oh
(Oh, oh oh oh oh oh)
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
(body of years, body of years)
Can't stop tripping on these
(body of years, body of years)
Old roads (body of years, body of years)
(Body of years, 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
Telltale diary pages
They unveil a ghost from the ages
When bodies of years
Were breaking from all of the weight
Of diary pages telltale diary pages, oh, oh
(Oh, oh oh oh oh oh)
