lyrics
It takes me time alone to feel
Okay again.
It takes you time with me to feel
Okay again.
Unconsciously, I’ve attached myself to you.
Rhizomal, with roots instead of a body.
You said, some people aren’t made to last.
It’s not good, but it’s not wrong…
I hope you’re wrong.
I hope you’re wrong.
If the meds could work you’d be
On your feet again.
If you found a therapist
You’d start to trust again.
Unconsciously, I’ve attached myself to you.
Rhizomal, with roots instead of a body.
You were never the type to look for a messiah.
You were never the type to look for panacea.
You were never the type to trust the help you needed.
I was never the one to help
In the way you wanted.
And I miss you
Just like you wanted.
And I miss you…
And the way you are.
Okay again.
It takes you time with me to feel
Okay again.
Unconsciously, I’ve attached myself to you.
Rhizomal, with roots instead of a body.
You said, some people aren’t made to last.
It’s not good, but it’s not wrong…
I hope you’re wrong.
I hope you’re wrong.
If the meds could work you’d be
On your feet again.
If you found a therapist
You’d start to trust again.
Unconsciously, I’ve attached myself to you.
Rhizomal, with roots instead of a body.
You were never the type to look for a messiah.
You were never the type to look for panacea.
You were never the type to trust the help you needed.
I was never the one to help
In the way you wanted.
And I miss you
Just like you wanted.
And I miss you…
And the way you are.
