what sarah said

"Alien"

Verse 1:
im a loner im a rebel
im a saint im the devil
i am one of a kind on so many different levels
im at peace im at war
im the moon im the stars
im the sunset dipping while your watching from afar
im a killer im a lover
im the baddest mother fucker
im the night im the day
im the words youll never say
im the best im the worst
and thats how i live with this curse

Chorus:
im sort of different
i dont know if youll get it
i could tell you what my name is but you might just forget it
i got to figure out
what to do
where i am
not a clue
i got to tell someone because i cant hold it in
im a diamond in the rough
a deep dark secret
ill whisper in your ear if you think you can keep it
im an alien
im an alien
im an alien
but i dont come from outer space

Verse 2:
i am big i am small
i am ripping down the walls
i am moving i am still
im the void youll never fill
im your hope im your fear
the voice inside your head you hear
i am black i am white
im the fight your scared to fight
i am everything and nothing
but im here to show you something

Chorus

Verse 3:
im your dream
i am more than what i seem
im the wind im the fire
im your sexual desire
i am one thing that you will never be

Chorus

im gonna take off to outer space

Alien by Fiona

Jump that train boy, jump that train
See the land your father paints
Take that ride girl, take that ride
Through the dark old country side
Write your mother, write your friends
Dance until you cannot stand
Walk the ground without your shoes
Question religion and the President to
Live for now, not for the past
Burn your regrets, roll that grass
Jump that train boy, jump that train
See the land your father paints
And just like a burning ember in the night
They disappear
Ol' passerby
