She holds tight to another day another year
Where the past is forgotten
But the future so clear

She holds tight, to another day another year
Her mirror sees a smile
But can't forget all the tears
Reflecting a life devoid of acceptance
Our hearts grow cold
With the purest of intentions

You think you care but you don't see
What we are and who we'll be
Standing tall, too blind to see
What we are and who we'll be

What we inherit is right where we accept it
You are not the shore
But the reel that will be casted
Shape the land, don't let the land shape you
So we sing, fuck the roots
What matters is where your heart grew

She holds tight to another day another year
Because holding on's the only thing
That got her here
The pieces of her life are being connected
In more ways than she ever expected

Still we hope, to find a way
To feel the same
Nothing lasts forever, not even pain

You think you care but you don't see
What we are and who we'll be
Standing tall, too blind to see
What we are and who we will be

What we inherit is right where we accept it
You are not the shore
But the reel that will be casted
Shape the land
Don't let the land shape you
So we sing, fuck the roots
What matters is where your heart grew

Fuck the roots what matters
Is where your heart grew

Maybe we're a slate that's sculpted by pain
Maybe our loves formed from our hate
Maybe someday we'll all be saved
From the future that we had yesterday

What we inherit is right where we accept it
You are not the shore
But the reel that will be casted
Shape the land
Don't let the land shape you
So we sing, fuck the roots
What matters is where your heart grew
