ALIEN

Why do I feel like an alien creature?
Why do I seem like I’m never here?
Stuck like a shadow to a body you’re seeing
Why don’t I just go and be real/
Why on earth do I feel

Alien – a far-out guy
Alien – in human disguise
Alien – flash hot and cold
Alien – a walking soul

Alien – scars on my psych
Alien – from being polite
Alien – this is my fate
Alien – I can’t relate

Alien – is it my head?
Alien – something I said
Alien – glare in my eye
Alien – scares passersby

Unhuman breathless /restless
Unhuman wits end / on edge
Unhuman separate / unaffected
Unhuman don’t blink / just wink

Alien – creep on the street
Alien - paraplegic
Alien – nut on the bus
Alien – everyone’s hushed

Alien – thinking too much
Alien – can’t reach to touch
Alien – out of this time
Alien – out of the line

ALIEN ONE ONE ONE ONE ALIEN ALIEN ALIEN
ALIEN ONE ONE ONE ONE ALIEN ALIEN ALIEN
ALIEN ONE ONE ONE ONE ALIEN ALIEN ALIEN
AFTER ALL ALL ALL ALL ALL AREN’T WE ALL ALIENS?

If I sit still and stare the night away
Rocketing away in thought
If you’re afraid to talk or to touch me
Shout – grab – and wake me up!
