lyrics
I'm still
awake
and filled
with hatred
for the dust
on the floor
I could punch
The windows out of myself
I could burn the whole house down
I sit
in the dark
in the not
in the empty
and I listen to my blood
and I grieve the things I loved
but the sun it rises
and the seedlings find it
I can hear you loud and clear
in this expanse of silence
Put your roots back in the dirt
Cause the earth can take it
I can always take it
The smell of the rain
Makes me ache for my young years
and I feel like the trains
Full of no-one but still going
Like it’s nothing
But the sun it rises
and the seedlings find it
I can hear you loud and clear
In this expanse of silence
Put your roots back in the dirt
Cause the earth can take it
I can always take
Time stretches out ahead
and disappears behind
Edges undefined
No signs up ahead
So I’ll live in this instead
Cause the sun it rises
And the seedlings find it
I can hear you loud and clear
In this expanse of silence
Put my roots back in the dirt
Cause the earth can take it
The earth can take it
And I can take it
