| | | | My bones are the bars of a jail And I've never felt completely female I sleep when the sun starts to rise So I spend the night drying my eyes And I watch all the humans, they move place to place And hide in plain sight with that look on their face Do they feel the same or is it just me? I wish I could fly into that beautiful beam And I don't fit in, I'm strugglin' I'm trying to be one of them But I'm an alien around here And I don't fit in, I'm strugglin' I'm trying to be one of them But I'm an alien around here I'm an alien around herе My soul's crawling out of my skin Yeah, this gravity's wearing me thin I'd probably breathe better on Mars Floating up there above the stars And I watch all the humans, they move place to place And hide in plain sight with that look in their face Do they feel the pain or is it just me? I wish I could fly into that beautiful beam And I don't fit in, I'm strugglin' I'm trying to be one of them But I'm an alien around here And I don't fit in, I'm strugglin' I'm trying to be one of them But I'm an alien around here I'm an alien around herе | | | They look at me like I'm from light-years away        They look at me like I'm from light-years away           |    |    |    |    | |    | N.C. And I don't fit in, I'm strugglin' N.C. Now I am not trying to be one of them I'm an alien          Around here

À propos de la chanson

La chanson aborde le sentiment d'aliénation et de solitude que ressent une personne qui se sent différente et mal à l'aise dans son environnement. Elle évoque une lutte intérieure, un désir de s'intégrer à une société où elle ne trouve pas sa place, se comparant à un extraterrestre parmi les humains. Les images de l'emprisonnement et de la quête d'évasion symbolisent ce besoin d'échapper à une réalité pesante. Dans un monde où les apparences peuvent être trompeuses, l'artiste se demande si d'autres ressentent aussi cette douleur cachée. Ce paradoxe de vivre entouré de gens tout en se sentant isolé est au cœur de la chanson, soulignant à quel point il peut être difficile de se sentir compris et accepté.
