Meursault
The Dirt & The Roots
You burned down the orphanage and poisoned your motherAnd the flames, they were seen for miles and milesAnd the soles of your shoes could not carry it forwardAnd you star you stared, and stood and smiledAnd you thought about all that had troubled you latelyAnd it rose as smoke from the burning groundAnd you spoke through your teeth as you turned to walk from itAnd God help me how I miss it all nowAnd never will I find anything that will bind me to all that I knewUntil I find out I will bury my heart beneath the dirt, the soil, and the rootsSo you buried your heart beneath the dirt and the rootsAnd you ran so fast, you ran so farAnd you turned to see birds peck the meat from the soilAnd they flew so fast and they flew so farAnd you thought about all that had troubled you latelyAnd it rose as smoke from the burning groundAnd you spoke through your teeth as you turned to walk from itAnd God help me how I miss it all nowAnd never will I find anything that will bind me to all that I knewUntil I find out I will bury my heart beneath the dirt, And the soilAnd the roots
