In the Soil

I’ve been lost so many times
Come back to what I’ve found
Nothing more than when I left
When’s my time going to come around

I feel the change in the wind
My branches bending to the east
Trying to find another life
That I can grow older with in peace

I’ve been to so many places
In my mind I have found
No solace in understanding
Why my roots hold me in the ground

But out of the soil
Grows another tree
A bit tried and turned over
By the winds of thine enemy

Now I know why I’ve been searching
Why I’ve collected these scars upon my face
Destiny was built to make us run around
But only we can find our place

So I offer you my branch
Take of it what you will
Perhaps our roots can grow together
In the soil we will fill
