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 here

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 here

They look at me like I'm from light-years away

They look at me like I'm from light-years away

And I don't fit in, I'm strugglin'

Now I am not trying to be one of them

I'm an alien

Around here
