Petertait - Sleeves Lyrics

You wear us on your skin
Permanent reminders of the things
That you have grown from since

You're wearing out in the sun
The pain is
Only skin deep but
It can cut deeper and

Lines and dots on shapes on shades on bleeding veins
And all of it accounts for thousands of your days
And somehow all these lanes would lead me right here to you
You

A canvas of stories
One by one
Your sleeves tell your journey
And I love what you've become

I'm
Black and blue with love
Oh could not forget the girl I met with writing on her arms
And no-one would expect that we would get this far
But it's not enough
What were we thinking of
This pain was only skin deep but
It can cut deeper and

I've hardly
Scratched the surface
Scratches that last for a lifetime
And follow you straight to your grave

A canvas of stories
One by one
Your sleeves tell your journey
And I love what you've become
