Dogeared Boy

Read me as my feet melt the frost
Dogeared, before you
Nearly legible in the winter sun

The old barn is barren but for dust
We can dance alongside, fireside
For you, my words could be sung
Oh oh oh

Just a little too skinny, new rags on brittle bones
But in this light, I can cast shadows too
This boy is dogeared by you

Jaded plow cutting the field
Spreading the brambles that tore
Another tale scratched into me

This farm has come and gone
Now the hollows will be home
My stories told on sun-bleached, tattooed skin

Just a little too skinny, new rags on brittle bones
But in this light, I can cast shadows too
This boy is dogeared by you

Read me, see me in the cold
Ink runs hot in these veins
Pages of skin fold into stories
All for a boy unseen by you

Just a little too skinny, new rags on brittle bones
But in this light, I can cast shadows too

Just a little too skinny, new rags on brittle bones
But in this light, I can cast shadows too
This boy is dogeared by you
