Its been so long now but you still have your roots berried  in my heart crushing my lungs my hands raw from trying to pull your roots out so i can breath my heart is sore from trying to yank them out i only made it worse for my self now in pain suffocating I drank this summer away to forgot about you it only made it worse because how could I forget someone who had grown inside my chest who left scars welts bruises and busted lips upon my fragile body so i drank to become numb and it worked Now i see you around town it still hurts like the roots have grown deeper and get yanked as they grow tight around my lungs leaving me gasping for air Now i have him he cant find a place in my chest which is now a jungle of your trees

How You Left Me
Its been so long now but you still have your roots berried  in my heart crushing my lungs my hands raw from trying to pull your roots out so i can breath my heart is sore from trying to yank them out i only made it worse for my self now in pain suffocating I drank this summer away to forgot about you it only made it worse because how could I forget someone who had grown inside my chest who left scars welts bruises and busted lips upon my fragile body so i drank to become numb and it worked Now i see you around town it still hurts like the roots have grown deeper and get yanked as they grow tight around my lungs leaving me gasping for air Now i have him he cant find a place in my chest which is now a jungle of your trees
