lyrics

I am a small root
growing deep beneath the earth
though I can feel the tree above
all I ever see is the dirt

I'm sure the sun dances on the limbs
I'm sure the leaves applaud themselves
just to taste the foreign winds,
to taste the fruit of ourselves

yet I remain
deep in the ground
growing further away
from the tree
taking on this water
for a plant that I'll never see

I catch the chill of the first frosting
I hear the laughter of a new spring
although some of the branches are dying
no one heard them scream

and I am one of many
who never get to see the view
unaware of what it out there
and the end we're coming to

yet I remain
deep in the ground
growing further away
from the tree
taking on this water
for a plant that I'll never see
