Alien

Lyrics:

She thinks she’s an alien

Well what does she know

She’s a bright young girl

So many places to go

.

But she won’t do her homework

Won’t come out to play

All the girls and boys

Don’t want her anyway

.

She thinks she’s all alone

Well that’s just not true

She has a God by her side

Just like me and you

.

But the God’s one lesson is

“I’m better than you,”

Her faith is broken

There’s nothing left to do

.

Can you feel the wind blow?

Can you feel the breeze?

She’s caught you in her UFO

There’s no escape now

.

She knows she’s an alien

Well what can she do?

She’s lost from a planet

That she’s never been to

.

She can’t find home

So she tries to fit in

But she cannot hide

No she cannot hide

.

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

.

Can you feel the wind blow?

Can you feel the breeze?

She’s caught you in her UFO

There’s no escape now

.

The girl she is an alien

Girl that’s all you are

She wants to be a real girl

Well girl you’ll never be what you want

.

The girl is an alien

Well what can she do?

She has a God by her side

Just like me and you

She’s lost from a planet

That she’s never been to

Her faith is broken

There’s nothing left to do

.

She can’t go home

So she tries to fit in

But she cannot hide

No she cannot hide

She cannot hide

She cannot hide

.

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

Girl you’ll never be what you want

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

She wants to be a real girl, a real girl

I, Quentin wrote this song about our experience growing up with undiagnosed autism. However, I invite you to give this song whatever meaning you choose. For example, if you're a trans woman, or an immigrant kid, and you see yourself in this song, than that can be what this song is about as well.

We plan to release Alien as one of the two singles on our debut album, "Creature& of the Night." As of now, we have performed it live once.
