I'm just a body of years...

Mother Mother - "Body Of Years"

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

Same here. I can't figuire out if she wrote it or if it's song lyrics.

But if you wrote it yourself Christina then it's really good, and you should post more of the things you write. :biggrin1:

 

[D_Andreas Sukov]

there is alteast one ive read on her blog. they are pretty fucking good

 

[Opalite]

I'm pretty sure she wrote it herself, because she's awesome like that.

But I do wonder if they're lyrics or not?

Mother Mother is a Canadian group consisting of Molly and Ryan Guldemond and Ali Siadat.

Here's a video for Mother Mother and Body of Years:

Body of Years performed by Mother Mother

Although Christinab may well be their lyricist/composer. Nice song.

lmfao. i didn't write it. i just love them! i wanted to share one of my favourite bands, and one of my favourite songs with you guys. i'm glad you do enjoy it, though, and i feel really friggin' awesome that you would even think i wrote this!

*blushes hard at all of your compliments!*

 

[D_Andreas Sukov]

in my mind, when i read this i heard a slow acoustic song. i was kinda dissapointed when i heard it, but it was still good.


editissapointed because i wanted it to be how i heard it lol.

 

[Opalite]

The song itself wasn't really for me, but I'm too stuck in the 40's/50's, so disregard that.

I'm glad you took it as a compliment though, a well deserved one at that.
