Song language: English
Root Systems |
| Born underwater in a month of fire |
| Born into hawthorn and tangled briar |
| A wild card from a hungry pack |
| A number on the front, a pattern on the back |
| Dirt in the furrows, patient and thick |
| Time curls at the turn of a pick |
| And life gathers in the wake of the plow |
| The line offers what the field will allow |
| The Root system stares down |
| Shoots defy and point up |
| Unreeling in an act of spite |
| Oh I had a feeling that they might |
| I had a feeling that they might |
| Arms like Axes at a great expense |
| Hymns in the pastures, and penitence |
| The sweet glove on the agrarian hand |
| Caving prayers into a chaotic land |
