Roots Dig In - Restless Streets

Hey you

I'm interested in trying new things

But would you promise not to talk so fast

I know you're not one to follow the rules

But these are demands start off

I didn't even catch your first name

Could you tell me that

Oh if you open your book then I plan to read it

Careful what you say

If you open your book then I plan to read it

Oh if you open your book

Did you expect that you'd feel great in a different

Place without your friends

Keeping busy blocking out the optimistic ideas in your head

You need to plant your roots without your brother's help

Know that you'll only make this worse if you don't

Take care of yourself

That's all he wanted

So let your roots dig in to the sediment

Try and build your strength each day till you bloom

I know that's what he would have wanted

Your smiling face in a room where you felt okay

That's all he wanted

Hey you

Did you ever think of reaching out like they said

You would

Light a match at the top of the stairs so

I know your'e nearby

I'm sure that your picture's worth a thousand words

Or a thousand tears

That's what I'm finding here

Careful what you say

If you open your book then I plan to read it

Oh if you open your book you'll feel your anger

Subside

Peace of mind

Shake hands with the burden and leave it behind you

Now every time you look at your life you'll be

Consumed by the radiant light

So let your roots dig in to the sediment

Try and build your strength each day till you bloom

Let your roots dig in to the sediment

Try and build your strength each day till you bloom

I know that's what he would have wanted

Your smiling face in a room where you felt okay

That's all he wanted
