Grassroots

I was born alone

And I’ll die alone

Everything I hold

Is a rolling stone

I’m a heart that broke

Did it on my own

Did it on my own

I’m a light left on

Little bit too long

Went and got me lost

What was I running from

Have to get back home

Strip it to the bone

Strip it to the bone

Under all those years

Under all that dirt

There’s a kid down there

Who had to learn

How to find her way through

Trying to get back to grassroots

I was making plans

I was overdue

And the seasons change

Like people do

Now I’m making room

For something new

For something new

Under all those years

Under all that dirt

There’s a kid down there

And she had to learn

How to find a way through

Just trying to get back to

The light that shines

The daydreamer

The kid down there

That doesn’t turn

Away from the hard truth

It all comes back to

Grassroots

Uh uh uh

Uh uh uh

Uh uh uh

Now I’m starting over

Getting a little bit closer

I wanna know her

I wanna know her

Under all those years

Under all that dirt

There’s a kid down there

Who had to learn

How to find a way through

Just trying to get back to

The heart that beats

A fire that burns

To set me free

And maybe I’ll learn

How to take in the view

From where it grew
