Alien
Alien entstand in einer Reflexionsphase - über Distanz, Wurzeln und das Gefühl, an einem Ort aufgewachsen zu sein, der zwar das eigene Zuhause war, aber man sich trotzdem wie ein Fremdkörper fühlte. Zwischen innerem Konflikt und Selbstakzeptanz erzählt der Song eine Geschichte des Loslassens, des Voranschreitens und der stillen Freiheit, die entsteht wenn man sich selbst treu bleibt. Es geht darum, die eigene Herkunft zu lieben und gleichzeitig das Glück woanders zu finden. Vielleicht kennst du das Gefühl.
Verse 1: I was a lost child in this world I was in, Can you call it living when nothing feels like home within? Now I've got the music, it's the way I speak, I don't preach but there was only one person who could reach me. Verse 2: I know my name, I know I'm somehow different, Different from the rest and I always gave it my very best. Isn't this a nice place, top five percent they say, I smile and pretend because I know, it's fake, anyway. Chorus: Yeah I know, I don't really fit in here, Yeah maybe the alien was never meant to be here. Aliens come from a place far away and aren't meant to stay, I grow every day because I decided to go, without a big show. Verse 3: Too often I felt like an alien in every street, Too often their smiles felt cold, incomplete. Everything felt hollow, it was never at ease, It's where I come from, but I can't hold on, let me go, please. Verse 4: But still, I grew up right here, I could never see clear, Yesterday a kid, with so much fear, now fully grown. Sometimes I come back, but well destiny has shown, After a few days I feel the distance and I'm gone. Chorus: Yeah I know, I don't really fit in here, Yeah maybe the alien was never meant to be here. Aliens come from a place far away and aren't meant to stay, I grow every day because I decided to go, without a big show. Verse 5: And I'm truly sorry, please see, it was never meant to be, To stay forever, my happiness is somewhere out there. Just like you, I step outside and chase the stars, I am who I am, it took a while, now I can say it freely and with a smile. Verse 6: I see it clear, my purpose and pride in my roots, But I often felt like a stranger in the system, ready to move. And I know it hurts, to accept, this bloody truth, I leave with peace of mind, proud of where I'm from. Chorus: Yeah I know, I don't really fit in here, Yeah maybe the alien was never meant to be here. Aliens come from a place far away and aren't meant to stay, I grow every day because I decided to go, without a big show. Outro: And now I finally feel free, Yeah, so damn free. The alien feels free. Free.
