Roots

Sometimes I feel heavy in my heart but hollow in my chest
I'd like to think I do but I don't know best
It feels like I'm drowning I can see lights shining under waves
Tell me what to do with fish swimming in my mind
Sometimes it's hard to find
You remind me of the waves how you come and you go
Oh you're soft and bright and you're cold just like the snow
You feel just like a breeze, you're getting dark an autumn song
I want your warmth to radiate on my skin you are my sun

I'm breaking these walls down
Please look at what I've found
It may not make sense yet
I hope you won't regret
You're tangled in my roots

It seems I've outgrown you but I can't leave you behind
Won't you take some time and catch up with me
You are too stubborn and I can't make you see
My love you're about to make a mistake
Don't lose sight
Please just fight
Oh your silence makes me shake
Maybe my tears will root in the ground and turn into trees
Maybe one day these wounds will heal and flowers will sprout from the ground
Because I've tried my hardest to tend to this garden
But you keep leaving me with weeds

I'm breaking these walls down
Please look at what I've found
It may not make sense yet
I hope you won't regret
You're tangled in my roots
And love for you falls like fruit

You saw my soul
I never thought I'd have to worry about letting you go
Without you the world around me seems so strange
One day I'll learn the only constant thing is change

I'm breaking these walls down, please look at what I've found
It may not make sense yet, I hope you won't regret
You're tangled in my roots
And love for you falls like fruit
This is the hardest part
Without you is where I will start
