Lyrics
Intro
Yeah
Back to the start
Mm-hmm
Verse 1
Dusty boxes sitting under the attic stairs
Empty house
Long shadows stretching toward the hall
Silent and still
Mama's old photos curling at the edges
Waiting on me
Pre-Chorus
Look at the dirt on your palms
Look at the scars on your knees
Feel the weight of the air
Breathe it in
Chorus
Walk back to the roots you buried
Go find the path that you lost
Walk back to the roots you buried
Go find the path that you lost
Under the red clay
Beneath the tall pine trees
Post-Chorus
Go find it
Go find it
Roots
Yeah
Verse 2
Stuttering heart keeps skipping the beat today
Old metal swing
Rusty chain screaming in the heavy wind
Wild grass growing tall
Washing the bitter salt away from my skin
Tasting the rain
Pre-Chorus
Look at the dirt on your palms
Look at the scars on your knees
Feel the weight of the air
Breathe it in
Chorus
Walk back to the roots you buried
Go find the path that you lost
Walk back to the roots you buried
Go find the path that you lost
Under the red clay
Beneath the tall pine trees
Bridge
Maybe it's hard to remember
Maybe it's harder to stay
Maybe it's time to begin
Clean water
Clear sight
Right now
Chorus
Walk back to the roots you buried
Go find the path that you lost
Walk back to the roots you buried
Go find the path that you lost
Under the red clay
Beneath the tall pine trees
