Rootless
I'm a cloud drifting byDripping tears from the skyI'm a snail without a shellLeper with a golden bell
I've got nowhere to goI'm a stray cat on the roamChoking on a chicken boneFor a home sweet, no sweet home
For a root, for a leaf, for a branch, for a treeFor something, somebody that reminded them of me
Running with my roots pulled upCaught me cold so they could cutWhat there was left of love
I'm rootless [x2]
Work your fingers to the boneBuilding castles out of snowI'm a nomad walking onHumming to the same old song
Lower case societyTied to no communityA kingdom without a kingWith no sense of belonging
For a root, for a leaf, for a branch, for a treeBut there's somebody that reminded them of me
Running with my roots pulled upCaught me cold so they could cutWhat there was left of loveI'm rootless [x2]
Running with my roots pulled upSo they could cut me free of love
Running with my roots pulled upCaught me cold so they could cutWhat there was left of loveI'm rootless [x2]
Dragging my roots through the snowNo home sweet and no sweet homeI've got nowhere to goI'm rootless [x2]
