[00:10] If I build it out of blood and bone
[00:15] If I love it and I even give it a good name
[00:19] And I let it stand up on it's own
[00:23] And if I even ever learn to trust and walk away
[00:26] Will it crumble on it's own two feet?
[00:31] Or will it multiply and grow big, white wings?
[00:35] If I love it and I give it life
[00:38] Can I let it go and know that it was never mine?
[00:39] Give more,
[00:42] Give it all away
[00:46] I'm sure it'll come back someday
[00:51] You gotta let go to let it circle back around
[00:56] To rise up you gotta learn to root down
[01:03] Learn to root down
[01:14] If I cut it with a heart-shaped knife
[01:20] And I send it to my very closest of friends
[01:23] And they somehow bring it back to life
[01:27] What if I only ever do it all over again?
[01:31] I'm a writer here upon this ship
[01:35] On a sea of unnamed and untamed passages
[01:38] And every vessel's meant for pouring out
[01:43] And every bloom has to make room to root down
[01:44] Give more,
[01:45] Give it all away
[01:50] I'm sure it'll come back someday
[01:55] You gotta let go to let it circle back around
[01:59] To rise up you gotta learn to root down
[02:07] Learn to root down
[02:15] Learn to root down
[02:16] Give more,
[02:18] Give it all away
[02:24] I'm sure it'll come back someday
[02:27] You gotta let go to let it circle back around
[02:31] To rise up you gotta learn to root down
