graeme miller - her roots lyrics
[verse 1]
she was so patient –
thousands of years, planting footprints in the soil
she said “it’s happening
don’t wait for them to let you start living, man
we’re in motion.”
and her smile lit whole cities
as the train tore up the tracks
and she’d just sit there, crying
and holding them up
[chorus]
she’d sing “run, run, run, because there’s not long now to go
and growing up means finding peace from nothing
if we all fall and join the fires down below
we’re just as terrified as those decaying.”
and sometimes i get scared
that we’re just really good at faking it
[verse 2]
her smile spurred whole mornings
in the wake of the void of evenings long gone
and to dance upon her roots
with eyes up to the sky
she’s waiting patiently for us to grow up and move on
forever, time and time again
we’d sit and listen
for her revolution songs
where’s the revolution
of our generation
after she’s gone?
oh where’s the revolution
after she’s done singing
[chorus]
“run, run, run, because there’s not long now to go
and growing up means finding peace from nothing
if we all fall and join the fires down below
we’re just as terrified as those decaying.”
and sometimes i get scared
sometimes i get scared
sometimes i get scared
that we’re just really good at faking it
