lyrics

Let me help you
Step out of your skin
Found the only way from the outside in

If I can get in
You can get out if I can get in
If I can get in
You can get out if I can get in

The roots set down deep and stood up tall
Knock the fences down they kept them small

Now they're overgrown, you've lost all control
Now they're overgrown, you've lost all control

Pick it up where you leave it
Fall and place and repeat it
Ride the day into the night and back to the light

Maybe all that we needed was a change of the seasons
Time to make it all right, make it all right

Time to let the heat in
Time for proper weeding
See
It's not that deep
Time to catch your breathing
Time to regain feeling
See if you look differently it's smaller than it seems
