Howard Redekopp - 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 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 sh** 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
