Alien

Move my lips to form the words to connect to you 

It’s as if my tongue isn’t the same

The words won’t come out right 

School, work, family, friends, lovers, society… 

They all expect you to be what they want/need you to be

(What do you want from me?!)

I’m just trying to live my life

Never been understood in this place

(I don’t belong here) 

Used to try to be one with the crowd as a child 

But fuck all that

I wasn’t built the same 

And through all this constant noise and chaos 

Here I stand

But how can I find myself in all this madness? 

So tired of all this sadness

Is anyone listening?

Does anyone ever hear me? 

Screaming/Dying inside 

Do you hear me? 

Can you fucking see me?! 

This is my story, my voice, my life 

They’ve never been yours 

Spent my whole life feeling like an alien

Move my lips to form the words to connect to you

It’s as if my tongue isn’t the same

The words won’t come out right

I wasn’t built the same

(alien to myself) 

This is my story, my voice, my life

They’ve never been yours

Tried to fit in with the crowd

Fuck that

Now give me my crown 👑👽
