verse 1 You lost your mind I could not go What little time we spent A penny on the floor My desperation A spinning top Revolving on and on A world that never stops Is it all mine? How could I know? We threw the rind away Swallowed all the core Tried levitation You're not alone The stars are holding open A door we'll never close I have an engine made of gold Something so beautiful The world will never know Our roots are stronger than you know Up through the concrete we will grow Our roots are stronger than you know Up through the concrete we will grow verse 2 Is it all mine? I can't let go What little time we spent A penny on the floor My desparation Is this a curse? 'Til death do us part For better or for worse I have an engine made of gold Something so beautiful The world will never know Our roots are stronger than you know Up through the concrete we will grow Our roots are stronger than you know Up through the concrete we will grow
