lyrics

ROOTS ARE FOR TREES
(Tomaz Paoliello)

Roots are for trees I don’t belong here
And don’t want to know where I belong
I’ve tried so hard to find
To find some peace of mind
That I won’t stand to lose again
I’m not gonna do what people want me to
What I will is what you won’t
I won’t try to hide
The way I feel inside
For it’s the place I feel at home
What doesn’t belong to the soul I will let be
My feet don’t care about the ground they stand
And it doesn’t matter if the carpet flies
My feet don’t care
My lips don’t care about the words they shouts
And it doesn’t matter if the meaning fades
My lips don’t care
Roots are for trees I don’t belong here
Don’t you tell me where I belong
The way I step the ground
The place I am right now
Is the only place I wanna be
What doesn’t belong to the soul I will let be
What doesn’t belong to the soul I won’t take with me
What doesn’t belong to the soul I will set free
What doesn’t belong to the soul I don’t belong with me
