We're swimming in different directions
But all our ankles, they are tethered to home
I can see in your pale complexion
That you want to see places I've never known
I was glad to have been a part of your shedding skin
To be a shell you used to live in
But now I know. I'll pull my roots from the ground
Yeah, I'm back up and I'm ready to go
But I'm no single cell, sometimes it's hard to tell
If I told you, I swear I'd fall through
When I hold you, I am just crushed by the weight of your world
It's too hard a hand to hold
But now I know. I'll pull my roots from the ground
Yeah, I'm back up and I'm ready to go
