Uproot

Dear God I fear my mistakes and snakes I've let bite at my feet
Will take me down into the depths
How did I ever sink this far
As I descend
I have lost all my intent
I have created my own little Hell
A tomb I so badly want out of
Reaching out, helpless, desperate
With my final breath
So come down, come down
My veins are becoming roots in this hollow ground
Everything is dark
Shed the dead skin
Break through the barrier
I am the ugliest of man
Over and over again
Dear God how long will I live like I'm dead
I'm done wasting away
Buried alive
I see hope inside
Inside me
Reaching out, helpless, desperate
With my final breath
So come down, come down
My veins are becoming roots in this hollow ground
Dig me out, dig me out
Uproot my putrid rotting body
Dear God, I am alive
Awake my dead bones
Awake my dead body
