(Get a lil more x3) I'll get under your skin, I'm crawling deep within I'll eat you x3 Stack up all you claim, rule from your garbage throne But every kingdom falls, don't care to know your name Cause every dynasty belongs to me in time (Get a lil more x3) I'm worming my way through what's left of your brain (What can you say) x3 Blow some dragon smoke, defend your bloody gold When I steal your breath, you might as well be broke Cause you can pay this toll in only flesh and bone (Give a lil more x3) (Chorus) You can cry into the void On your knees until your face turns blue Play pretend and avoid the dark corners of your mind Spout pretty lies into the mirror Stare until it reveals what's beneath I've got a bad taste, of a waste of space (What can you say x3) Try and build that case, like you're above the law Conveniently forget, that bitter fall from grace Waiting to pick you clean, a malcontent jury (Give a lil more x3) (Repeat Chorus) Got my scythe at my side and I'll ride

I'll be keeping tabs on all that I have They're not gonna catch me with my pants down again Yeah, this time you bet, I'll be watching Knuckles whiter than the teeth I grind to dust I'm ready to watch that blue sky turn to rain If someone's gonna crash this party, it might as well be me Every time I prove myself right Stumble on thin ice with two lead feet And everything must go The only thing you ever know is you never know The only thing you ever know is you never know I'll play along for awhile, but maybe I'll forget the lines Bow out not so gracefully I know when it's over, don't count on an encore As they throw the rose Thorny vines will climb out of that six foot hole Stretching to the edges as they take control They take control But I know what I know, what we all know (You got to, you got to, lose control) I know what I know, what we all know (You got to, you got to, lose control) I know what I know, what we all know (You got to, you got to, lose control) Lose control

Stardust 03:19
Try and be a little person, a one inch person in a ten foot world Try and be a big person, a fifty foot person in a five foot world And it's a shame, it's a pity, you're an outlier, nothing's made for you And it's a shame, what a pity, you're an outlier, nothing's made for you Put it all on the 8 Ball, expect to call an answer from a triangle Rest your head on the pages, and turn them daily like the words are gold There is no day, there's no payoff, it's all stardust, nothing's meant for you There is no day, it's all chaos, we're all stardust, nothing's meant for you (Chorus) There's the rolling tide, gonna slip slip up slip away Ride the rolling tide, gonna slip slip up slip away (Whistle solo) Try and be a living person, a deep blue person in a shallow world One sided conversation, and end the evening by picking up the bill And it's a shame, it's a pity, there's no outline, nothing's planned for you It's a maze, walls are changing try and get by, when nothing's meant for you (Chorus)

Birthknot 02:15
We'll take this port by storm They'll never know what hit them Crashing waves, behind that coy gaze Away we go He's been floating in the eye We've been linking arms at high tide (whispering secrets) And he stays blind Beginning is the end, it's a long time coming And it's all been you We'll stage a coup and bring the fire With these flames, we're lickin' our lips The city's getting torn down Burn every bridge outta town And guess who's got the higher ground With these flames, we're meltin' your lids Who can shut their eyes now? Try to run, we'll hunt you down Try to hide and you'll be found Beginning is the end, it's a long time coming It's a long time coming Look what you made me Shadow of the deep's come out to play We got a new game, and new rules to play by See how you stand as the earth falls away End is beginning, it amounts to nothing Growing strong, growing strange It's unrecognizable You can try and buy your soul But it'll always be on loan Muck it up, and you'll see Mother never let you go You can feel her tugging on your cord The ache inside your gut you can't ignore Endless beginnings, to what are we running? To what are we running?

Runaway 02:19
(Chorus) A little spark and then it goes down in flames No turning back Why am I like this?/ I should be like this It isn't worth it/ It should be dealt with I'm in control but I can't control it Let it slide/ Let it eat you alive Maybe I'll try/ Try it on the other side (Chorus) I see appeal in compromise, derail this ego trip in time (Shake off that lingering insecurity) When you're on a runaway, it can be hard to say It takes your weight in pride to feed your ugly inside (Shake off that lingering insecurity) (Chorus) Don't need your story, I've got mine. I'll twist your words until they're lies (Shake off that lingering insecurity) If you read between the lines, then you can't be surprised It takes the lies you find to feed your ugly inside (Shake off that lingering insecurity) (Chorus) x2 (Bridge) Jump jump off the track x 4 Don't let it lead you down the line x3 (Chorus) x2 I'm in control but I can't control that Let it slide/ Let it eat you alive

Drive 03:16
How long can I lay here with that circle closing in? Beady eyes predict demise while I rot alive Sun-bleached skeletons try and rope me in and they won't win I've got a route in mind If money is time, then I'm spending mine. It's a risk I'll take (Load it up!) Head out at sunrise, take it to the coast We can sleep in turns, lay low on the roads Dusty back roads (make our own way) Focus with that red stare, those darkest parts eat fear We know something they don't know, an echo from below Sun beating on our skin, not a whip of wind, but they won't win I've got a route in mind If I'm losing time, I can't drop a dime and the stakes are high Ride the cliff side with a canyon grin Knee can guide the wheel, weaving in and out, what could stop us now? (Chorus) Foot off the brake, not strapped in tight This has been coming for a lil while Can't settle down, won't settle in No other choice but to rot or run Suck up all that new air, no ghosts have settled here Build another house of cards on a bed of sand Surf beating on the shore, knocking on my door, but I want more Eyes on the exit sign Bargaining with time, it won't buy a rhyme on the other side Tethered by a whim, under a honeymoon (ooo) When the stars fade, blow a kiss goodbye and throw it into drive (Chorus) x2

about

This album has a lot of themes of restlessness and the struggles of being a human. Rootstalk refers to part of a plant, often an underground part, from which new above-ground growth can be produced but also the idea that our roots talk.

We hope folks can relate to some of the feelings we put into these songs, and we hope all our friends keep putting down solid roots and continue to grow strong and strange with us.
