Wandering Roots

[Verse]
I’ve unpacked my heart in hotel rooms
Left pieces of me in crowded tombs
A city of lights
A village of clay
I never knew where I’d want to stay
[Prechorus]
The road is a river
It carries me far
But where’s the ground
Where’s my star
[Chorus]
I’m clinging to the earth
To the air
To the sky
No roots to hold me
No map to try
Where is home when the world’s my place
A fleeting shadow
A stranger’s face
[Verse 2]
Borders and customs
They blur and bend
Every hello is just the start of an end
I build my walls out of fleeting stone
Everywhere
Nowhere
I’m always alone
[Bridge]
Suitcase dreams and paper walls
Every language
I’ve learned them all
But the words don’t stick
They fall apart
Like the broken compass in my heart
[Chorus]
I’m clinging to the earth
To the air
To the sky
No roots to hold me
No map to try
Where is home when the world’s my place
A fleeting shadow
A stranger’s face
