I feel like an island where you are a tree
And when the wind is violent it don’t bother me
But it tears you down

So come on put your roots down
It don’t bother me
Cause I feel like an island
I’m wild, I’m floating free

All my life I never felt like I could fit in
And playing by the rules was something that was a sin
I was born to wander, I was born to roam
And with you I think that I have found my home
And I’m not alone

So come on put your roots down
It don’t bother me
Cause I feel like an island
I’m wild, I’m floating free

And this world of crazy violence
It don’t make sense to me at all
So come on put your roots down
And we can be free.
