Alien

(album: Thriving Ivory - 2008)

No need to be here
No card to clock in
And I could swear somebody's watching
Where I go and where I've been
Brother I could see Moses
And all the things he did for you
Oh brother I've been hearing voices
That I'm probably not supposed to
How will I walk steady
If the ground should come alive?
And how will I be ready
For the world another time?

Oh alien
You'll be just fine
You've always been beautiful to me
Oh alien
Pay us no mind
We haven't the light you hold to see

So am I another slave now
To the screaming in my head?
Or is it a little strange now
How the moment's gone and fled?
Bother I gotta tell you
That something here is wrong
Oh brother I gotta tell ya
This place ain't what I thought

Oh alien
You'll be just fine
You've always been beautiful to me
Oh alien
Pay us no mind
We haven't the light you hold to see

I know I ain't gonna live forever
And I know you feel the same
You'll see it when you're older
No love is not a game anymore
So thank god we're together

Oh alien
You'll be jsut fine
You've always been beautiful to me
Oh alien
Pay us no mind
We haven't the light you hold to see
Oh alien
