Wolf Parade - Am I an Alien Here lyrics
[Wolf Parade - Am I an Alien Here lyrics]
I had a dream you left me for
Someone who was mean to me
So I cried and left for Mexico
Well I tried to learn to surf by riding
A machine that I kept beside the window
It was not a good way to be
It was not a good way to be
I had a dream I was in school
I was learning from the best
How to overcome my blues
They said, here's a spider in a bowl
Here's Poseidon's white bull
Now, just pretend you have
The right to choose
And I say, am I an alien here?
Here in the cave of my skull
Crawling around in the dark
Dark to the ones I love
Put fodder on the fire
Get water from the well
It's a simple kind of life
And happiness is easy, it's a
Story that you tell
It's a teardrop in your eye
And I had a dream that he died
And he died, then he died
And then mama died too
And somewhere in the world an evil
Genius was on the rise
And then Bowie died, and everybody said
Oh, what are we gonna do
Am I an alien here?
Here in the cave of my skull
Crawling around in the dark
Dark to the ones I love
Am I an alien here? Here in my room
Someone who was mean to me
So I cried and left for Mexico
Well I tried to learn to surf by riding
A machine that I kept beside the window
It was not a good way to be
It was not a good way to be
I had a dream I was in school
I was learning from the best
How to overcome my blues
They said, here's a spider in a bowl
Here's Poseidon's white bull
Now, just pretend you have
The right to choose
And I say, am I an alien here?
Here in the cave of my skull
Crawling around in the dark
Dark to the ones I love
Put fodder on the fire
Get water from the well
It's a simple kind of life
And happiness is easy, it's a
Story that you tell
It's a teardrop in your eye
And I had a dream that he died
And he died, then he died
And then mama died too
And somewhere in the world an evil
Genius was on the rise
And then Bowie died, and everybody said
Oh, what are we gonna do
Am I an alien here?
Here in the cave of my skull
Crawling around in the dark
Dark to the ones I love
Am I an alien here? Here in my room
