when my bones break no one hears
but when you fall
suddenly my bones are supposed to heal
and its all my fault
and i hate how i thought that i finally found a home
in your arms
it all made me realise
that i was alone
all my colours are now dull
left looking in through the windows
left stranded out in the cold
because you say ‘aliens dont deserve a home’
and the worst part is that i believed you
when you said that ‘an alien doesn’t deserve warmth’
you made mе feel like an alien
the oppositе of human
left in the dark
forced to believe that this was where i belonged
cut off my tongue
sleeping on burning stones
what did i do wrong?
what have i done
as i lay alone
surrounded by the warmth of broken mirror shards
fallen down like a house of cards
a burnt out fire spark
each cut has stayed and left its mark
every time i build myself back up
straight away, i fall apart
left to pick myself up all alone in the dark
pretending i have perfect plastic parts
no cure for a melancholic heart
nothing more than a freak show
for others to enjoy
stuck in metaphorical snow
just a puppet, a toy
and i didnt want to leave
as you were all that i had ever known
forced out into the cold
frozen, getting old
soon ill fold
deep down i wanted you to be happy
even if that mean that you destroyed me
for some reason my heart doesn’t want to recover from you
but its damaged so whats new?
always blue
wondering with no clue
of who i belonged to
and i crave the way you let me down
because it’ll mean youll stick around
and if im an alien
why cant i find my way back home
all alone
so cold
what did i do wrong
wheres the signal
have i been abandoned
made me feel so alien
so distant
did i do something wrong?
did i breathe too strong?
left confused as of what im always running from
it was aliens
reminded of the sirens
you made me feel like an alien
lost the way home
cant travel back to whwre i was from
lost the signal
left here
sitting in denial
that im not normal
trying to fight the fact
that im an alien
missing ignorance
your love was a prison
that i dant break free from
constantly on the run
no clue what im running from
but i guess it was all the reflections
of aliens
but when you fall
suddenly my bones are supposed to heal
and its all my fault
and i hate how i thought that i finally found a home
in your arms
it all made me realise
that i was alone
all my colours are now dull
