Roots Songtext
von Thus:Owls

We walked down to the river in the woods
Behind the house where we grew up as kids
It′s time to dig
Dig up those dogs we once dug down out of the graves

Kneel down, down, down
Let your leaves touch the ground
Kneel down, down, down
It's time to face what′s bound
To grow back over you


Oaks grow tall where the lights go deep
Roots are silent but longs to speak about the past
They once were asked to keep
And in the wind
You hear a whisper and a poem of what we did

Kneel down, down, down
Let your leaves touch the ground
Kneel down, down, down
It's time to face what's bound
To grow back over you
Like truth can do

Oh father
Oh mother
Oh brother
Oh sister
Forgive me
Forgive me
