[Verse 1]

Is this real life?

Is this what I came for?

Did I leave behind?

What should I stay for?

All along I

Deciding to wake her up

Trying to keep the things I thought I'd lost


[Pre-Chorus]

(Oh, I, oh, I)

But the end we call home

(Oh, I, oh, I)

It doesn't listen anymore

(Oh, I, oh, I)

Now these roots are overgrown

I need space to breathe in


[Chorus]

I'm breaking out, not running away

I'm no native, I'm no native here

I've wasted time in these barricades

I'm no native, I'm no native here

Slip right in through the open

Staring into the sun

Another break in the ocean

Now my time has come

Something in my blood

Tells me I can't stay

I'm no native, I'm no native here


[Verse 2]

And I've realized

I don't speak the language

It all sounds the same

But I don't understand it

Found a way out

Out to higher ground to get myself out of the lost and found


[Pre-Chorus]

(Oh, I, oh, I)

But the end we call home

(Oh, I, oh, I)

It doesn't listen anymore

(Oh, I, oh, I)

Now these roots are overgrown

I need space to breathe in


[Chorus]

I'm breaking out, not running away

I'm no native, I'm no native here

I've wasted time in these barricades

I'm no native, I'm no native here

Slip right in through the open

Staring into the sun

Another break in the ocean

Now my time has come

Something in my blood

Tells me I can't stay

I'm no native, I'm no native here


[Bridge]

(Oh, I, oh, I)

(Oh, I, oh, I)

I'm no native

(Oh, I, oh, I)

(Oh, I, oh, I)

I'm no native here


[Bridge 2]

(Oh, I, oh, I)

Searching for an island in the storm

(Oh, I, oh, I)

Looking for a place to be reborn

(Oh, I, oh, I)

And I'm breaking down the woods to call my own

(Oh, I, oh, I)

To call my own

I'm not native here

Something in my blood

Tells me I can't stay


[Chorus]

I'm breaking out, not running away

I'm no native, I'm no native here

I've wasted time in these barricades

I'm no native, I'm no native here

Slip right in through the open

Staring into the sun

Another break in the ocean

Now my time has come

Something in my blood

Tells me I can't stay

I'm no native, I'm no native here
