You are so far away
And I am not here to stay
You know I've been a friend to you
I am a fleeting bee
A weakness in your knee
You know I don't belong here like you do
Oh no, I'll never grow as
Tree tall above the border
No roots to bind me
I bring you fire breath
An ancestry of death
I know it wasn't you but get me through this
The desert caught my tongue
I cannot speak in pride
I am a captive of the sand and tide
Oh no, I'll never glow as
White bloom atop a mountain
No snow to cleanse me, just salt
Find me in the water
Or blown beyond the border
No roots to bind me
You are so far away
And I am not here to stay
You know I don't belong here
You know I don't belong here
You know I don't belong here
And you know you're on your own here
