"Roots" lyrics

"Roots"

From atoms up to comets
Life is never promised
You could make me wanna lie and be dishonest

The simple things, they mean much
Just stay a while, be in touch
I'm clocking out at eight
Let's get tacos and a red punch

But you got your eyes down
You say you're gonna leave
Gotta clean house
Just another rinse repeat
On life, and love
Life, and love

I really miss the feeling
The confidence in silence
The simple things, they mean much
It's never been a science

So you gotta trust it in the process
'Cause nothing lasts forever anyway
Got my best advise from a broken screen display

But you got your eyes down
You say you're gonna leave
Gotta clean house
Just another rinse repeat
On life, and love
Life, and love

Don't know what you thinking 'bout
In patterns you've been speaking out
Can't remember meaning
Lord knows I've been reaching
It's harder 'cause the roots run deep
A smile says what I can't see through
I guess half the way I'll meet you

But you got your eyes down
You say you're gonna leave
Gotta clean house
Just another rinse repeat
On life, and love
Life, and love
(Life, and love)
