Broken Roots

Yeah, yeah

Look at the glass now I

miss the kid who used to laugh without a second thought Before

the heavy lessons that the colder seasons taught I had a light

inside my chest, it didn't need a spark Before the promises were

broken, leaving in the dark Now I am building up these walls

just to survive the night But I would give it all away

to feel that old light

Bring back the one I used to be Before the damage took

its toll on me (where did he go?) I want to feel

that simple spark Before the coldness left its heavy mark

They say that pain is just a teacher

making you grow strong But I've been carrying this armor for way

too long My smiles are calculated,

every step is planned I miss the days I didn't have to

try to stand

I trade this wisdom just to get back to the start

Before the frost settled deep inside my heart (yeah)

Bring back the one I used to be Before the damage took

its toll on me (where did he

go?) I want to feel that simple spark Before the coldness left

its heavy mark

Just a shadow now

But I'm searching for the way back

Yeah,

searching for the light
