A Rakes Progress Lyrics by Marillion
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
What do you do when your roots have dissolved and broken down
And the soil that you grew in when you were small
Has become nothing more than dirt in some dirty town

When you list all the qualities that you despise
And you realise
You're describing yourself

And breaking someone up inside
Is your only source of pride
What do you do when your roots have dissolved and broken down   And the soil that you grew in when you were small   Has become nothing more than dirt in some dirty town       When you list all the qualities that you despise   And you realise   You're describing yourself      And breaking someone up inside   Is your only source of pride
