Native Son lyrics

Fate

Giver of life now is all but dead and gone

Pain

Left to die in blood drenched fields or driven off

Now nothing remains

A ritual tamed

What's taken away

We will never replace, no

Now I'm a native son in a foreign land

And I'm just living in a world I can't understand

Time

Marching forward brings a slow and cruel decay

As I fight

For the heritage so many died to save

Now nothing remains

A ritual tamed

What's taken away

We will never replace

Now I'm a native son in a foreign land

And I'm just living in a world I can't understand

Fractured and cut off from all we had

Severed all that's sacred now we stand

Strangers left to wander this strange land

Now I'm a native son in a foreign land

And I'm just living in a world that I can't understand

I look around and see that my world is gone

Still I keep trying to fit in where I don't belong
