ROOTS
You said to me that you had roots in the ground/that is where life is found/
and I’m looking for you
You said to me that you would never lie/after all this time/ you are laying by me
I almost gave up/I almost gave in/temptations of bodies, and your skin/but then you’re gone again
You said to me that you had wished on a well/well I wish you to hell/but I’ll follow running
‘Cause everything you do is who you are/ every breath is art/and you leave me humming
That I’ll never give up/I’ll never give in/to temptations of bodies and your skin
You said to me that you had roots in the ground/more like graveyards now, nothing’s ever growing
