Roots

High on the hills above the town
There's a quiet apple tree
It tempered me

When I was working up a frown
Thinking 'bout the world I see
So painfully

How can I strive to so beget
A love you won't so soon forget?
Such inhumanity
In perpetuity
Let's take some time to clear out debt

Alone in ill and barren ground
This defiant apple tree
It came to me

When all my hope was looking down
What a noble cause to be
So patiently

How can I strive to so beget
A love you won't so soon forget?
Such inhumanity
In perpetuity
Let's take some time to clear out debt

I look to the west
This time of earliness leads a shaken morrow
Have I seen it all before?
I'm only a guest
My how this loneliness is a strange emotion
It resonates the roots in me
