Grow - Great Escapes

I’ve never thought that one day

These roots catch fire and give way

For something that does not put its hands on your throat

And chokes, chokes, chokes, chokes, chokes.

Maybe roots are nothing but a fuze.

Let’s light them, let’s look for their real use.

That awkward part in which the hero dies

Could be where the whole secret lies.

So maybe home’s no longer a spot on the map

But a bunch of people whose hands you can clap.

I’m sure life’s a lesson that nobody’s ever learned

So it might be right to watch these pages burn

I mean — isn’t every fuze waiting to be lit

Like every road is waiting to be hit?

So maybe home’s no longer a spot on the map

But a bunch of people whose hands you can clap

So maybe home’s no longer that city or town

But a feeling you can enjoy without any frown.
