Roots Lyrics

I've been carrying dead weight

Every failure to create

An orange glow that's going out

And you hate to see it now

How I've been stuck

In the bed I made

With aches and pains

From everything I'm not

I'm coming down with the rain

Moving in and out of place

Push back the pain

Telling myself that I'll change

Very soon but not today

The highs and lows

Northeastern weather

Won't let me go

The hot and the cold

The manic push and pull

Laughing like it's not getting old

The ebb and the flow

The manic push and pull

A quiet hum to wake the dead

The ringing inside my head

Thinking about the things they said

That I can't forget

Now I'm going through

Everything that's left of you

Just burning out in a cold room

Dwelling on days I'll never change

That always ended the same

I broke my hands holding this up

And I knew it wasn't enough

There's no more plans

Post doors slammed shut

You said I wasn't enough

A quiet hum to wake the dead

The ringing inside my head

Thinking about the things they said

That I can't forget
