Roots

I watched, as it, all fell, apart Ask me if it was easy A family built on the back of resentment I try to speak but the words slip Broken bottles at the feet of a jail cell Falling apart But you still can't see Suffering Brings us closer How am I supposed to know what you were thinking? You choked the air inside me while you hide in silence Cut open my skin Feeding from within Brave face on for the outside Dig your roots in me Force my eyes to see Wishing I could be Taken away Growing up in a broken home I see what you're made of This house of glass, showing its cracks Thinking it's not your fault Broken bottles at the feet of a jail cell Falling apart but you still can't see Suffering brings us closer How am I supposed to know what you were thinking? You choked the air inside me while you hide in silence I tried too hard To be right beside you When I should have been Looking forward Cut open my skin, feeding from within Brave face on for the outside Dig your roots in me, wishing I could be Taken away Bring me to The breaking point Force my hand To stamp you out How am I supposed to know what you were thinking? You choked the air inside me while you hide in silence All the things you hate, you taught me to break As you forced my hand You choked the air inside me while you hide in silence I watched, as it, all fell, apart Ask me if it was easy I watched you fall Ask me if it was easy
