[Verse 1]
I thank you for all the lives you've led
I thank you for every word you said
I thank you for walking away
I thank you for the promises you broke
For always watching, watching while I choke
I thank you for teaching me
Yes, I thank you for your hurting
[Chorus]
I bite down a little harder, my blade's a little sharper
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
Strike back a little harder, I scream a little louder
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
I'm stronger than I ever knew
I'm strong because of you
I hit back a little louder, fuck you a little harder
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
[Verse 2]
I thank you for the hole you dug in me
Filled it with cement, sunk me in your sea
Thank you for being so obscene
I thank you for never facing me
Swimming in the mud, never coming clean
I thank you for nothing in between
Yes, I thank you for leaving
[Chorus]
I bite down a little harder, my blade's a little sharper
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
Strike back a little harder, I scream a little louder
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
I'm stronger than I ever knew
I'm strong because of you
I hit back a little louder, fuck you a little harder
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
[Bridge]
You wanna know why I like the pain you say
There’s some sick part of me thankful for the hate
I stay positive and I push forward ya see
I gotta do the right thing for my family
So I smile and I say that the world is just fine
As these fucking parasites eat up my spine
So I ask you once and I ask you again
Where do your roots start and where do your roots end
[Chorus]
I bite down a little harder, my blade's a little sharper
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
Strike back a little harder, I scream a little louder
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow
I'm stronger than I ever knew
I'm strong because of you
I hit back a little louder, fuck you a little harder
My roots, my roots run deep into the hollow9
