Body of Years - Mother Mother Lyrics


[Verse One]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chrous]
Old soul who falls down
Can't stop trippin' on these
Old roads I go down
Get back up and-

[Verse Two]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Post-Chrous]
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

[Alt Chorus]
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

[Outro]
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...
