Universal Roots

Universal Roots Lyrics

I've got the blood under my nails from scratching
Scratching the peels from my heart
The heart that's drowning in sorrow
For that's all I am right now

The longing for something that's calling me
Something that holds the insights
The insights that reveal the true outside
See the outside inside out

I miss you, but I don't know who you are
I miss you, show yourself to me
I want to go back
Back to the world without a body
To my universal roots
What's wrong, what's wrong with me
I can sense you
But even more I can sense your absence
It's like being born without my mother

Was there a reason to send me away
Down here to learn from my pains
To swallow sh*t and my pride
Forgiven, but punished all the same

If you only knew
There's so much I want to tell
I almost lost my sanity to rationality

Can I be completely with you when I live

I miss you, but I don't know who you are
I miss you, show yourself to me
I want to go back
Back to the world without a body
To my universal roots

What's wrong, what's wrong with me
I can sense you
But even more I can sense your absence
It's like being born without my mother
