Roots
Clairvoyance Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you ever question
Your own existence?
I'm tired of trying to grasp a future
In a world I don't belong
I won't behave
Like there's no choice for me to make
I lost my mind
When you left our place
I’m trying to get over you
But I can’t
Forget the past
The only way for you to save me
Is for you to come
Back to our place
I’ve lost my path so many times
On my own
Just like wandering through the desert
The day is gone
I lost my sun
An endless night is what I live in
I'm falling deeper in the darkness
Help me to escape
Help me to find
My own peace
I tried to erase this world
Lost in the dark
Screaming at the top
Of my lungs
I tried to hide it all
To get things going
Concealing all my pain
I won't behave
Like there's no choice
No heart of gold
Just misery
And I will leave
No roots behind
If you show me how to forget
Forget the past
I'm holding desperately
To what is left of me
I'm losing everything
But I won't sink
I'm holding desperately
To what is left of me
I'm losing everything
You're taking everything
It's so cold without you
I miss your lips
I miss your skin
Hard as hell without you
But I need to live
I need to
Cut all the ropes tied around my wrists
Erasing the misery inside of me
Lost in myself I’m fighting to live
Against the will
Of my own destiny
God
You ruined my life
My whole existence
How am I supposed to live a life
Burdened with the weight




Of your...
Fucking crimes?
