Roots - mp3 - Laurie Z.®

This is the oldest song on the album - it was written (except the opening) when I was 17, one of the first songs I remember writing. This song has had several sets of lyrics written for it, but it always sort of had a life of its own. The minor key is very significant - it speaks to the inner turmoil of a tortured teen trying to figure out the meaning of life and other small stuff like that.
