lirik lagu lou emery – roots
[verse]
“it’s yours, if you want it,”
you say to me
i’ll find it in the carpet
with my dignity
but if dread’s a drug, then i’m an
addict like you’ve never seen
’cause just when i want it
you’re out of reach
i try to throw my sheets out
with the clothes
turn me into somebody
that no one knows
’cause i got bored of resolutions
bored of always letting go
and you could give me something better
but i know you won’t
[chorus]
this hollow body’s echoing now
so cover me in tin and leave me bare
no, you won’t find another lover there
you’ve got your way of breaking me down
so cover, but the roots begin to show
cover it, but i already know
[verse]
it just takes a bit of thinking
or so you said
god, pull me from the wreckage
of my own head
’cause i might fight for adoration
till you say i’ve k!lled it dead
then shut up upon the hour
’cause you won’t take it to bed
[pre~chorus]
and if feeling’s got me feeling something
i’m better off with nothing
[chorus]
this hollow body’s echoing now
so cover me in tin and leave me bare
no, you won’t find another lover there
you’ve got your way of breaking me down
so cover, but the roots begin to show
cover it, but i already know
[bridge]
that if you’re the one who filled my head with doubt
but if i’m the one who kept on holding out
then i guess we’ve both got pockets full of blame
oh, but i got nothing left
and you’ve got nothing there to tame
[chorus]
this hollow body’s echoing now
so cover me in tin and leave me bare
no, you won’t find another lover there
you’ve got your way of breaking me down
so cover, but the roots begin to show
cover it, but i already know
[outro]
who you are
