January 16th Songtext
von The Motion Below

It all started with a seed
I watched you plant it oh so deep
A monument to your newfound inner strength
Or did you plant it just for me?
What did you want us to see?
And how did you measure your safety?
We turned to leave
If only we could have seen

So slowly it begins to grow and winter your
Disposition fades away
But no one could have known how far the roots had crept
How far the roots had


I saw you in my sleep, old friend
I dreamt of you again
We were laughing and playing our childish games
A feeling that was so serene
Like nothing had ever changed
And you′d never gone away
Just like that you turned to me
I watched the blood fall from your face

So slowly it begins to grow and winter your
Disposition fades away
But no one could have known how far the roots had crept
Just how far the roots had crept

How long's it been since you left this place?
Lucidly began to call my name
I remember everything
Six long months have passed since you left this world
You tried to help me all the same
I wept on your shoulder for what felt like days
When I awoke my tears remained
When I awoke my tears fell all the same

So slowly it begins to grow and winter your
Disposition fades away
But no one could have known how far the roots had crept
Just how far the roots had crept


The roots have dug into the pavement where you went
Can see the damage under stone-clad rust
For hours I lay as I bit the grave
Finally caught up with me

I guess this is farewell
All those years have died
They built you swinging in the shade of the neighbor′s tree
The sorrows count on that

They both eventually
Locked in in your face
Accessory in residence

So slowly it begins to grow and winter your
Disposition fades away
But no one could have known how far the roots had crept
Just how far the roots had crept
So slowly it begins to grow and winter your
Disposition fades away
But no one could have known how far the roots had crept
Just how far the roots had crept
