Track Insight / Lyrics
You roll in with the wet tire spin
Where the concrete and the damp begin
Steel frame leaning by a heavy door
Spilling city grit across the floor
Under archives where the ink turns gold
Something ancient and a story told
You are shaking like a leaf in cold
Waiting for the heavy rain to fold
Rooted in the dark, you find your place
Slower than the growth of organic lace
Rooted in the dark, a steady beat
Safe beneath the noise of the rushing street
Monstera leaves in a plastic pot
You are searching for a quiet spot
Like a seed that found a hidden crack
Until the summer brings the sunlight back
Rooted in the dark, you find your place
Slower than the growth of organic lace
Rooted in the dark, a steady beat
Safe beneath the noise of the rushing street
Call it Calathea, a prayer in the night
Folding up the edges, hiding from the light
Dig into the loam, feel the heavy ground
Where the only truth is a humming sound
Check the soil and check the water line
Wait for every single leaf to align
Read the ledger of a dead man's hand
While you dream about a greener land
Pedals frozen in a rusted grip
Let the heavy heavy tension slip
Latin names for every weed you see
Growing wild and growing fast and free
Rooted in the dark, you find your place
Slower than the growth of organic lace
Rooted in the dark, a steady beat
Safe beneath the noise of the rushing street
Dig it deep now. Just stay rooted.
Yeah, just stay rooted.
