Aliens
Maybe you and I, we are from the stars
How lost we’ve been
Searching for reasons we feel out of place
Though home always hangs overhead
Normal conversation like Greek
Why can’t we relate. Why can’t we understand.
The word is freak
But its not one you’d choose for me.
Why do the Normals seem like hyenas
Watching with hungry eyes as we try to pretend
A screaming laugh
greeting a preys attempt to fit in.
We don’t think the same way as they do
Grape vines on electrical wire
Water dancing with fire
But we are always together
Like footsteps, or heartbeats
always tangled
Always in time
And if I crashed down from above
I am glad
We found each other in this foreign land
A long journey
But one we took hand in hand
So we look up at the night
At the stars
How lost we’ve been
But how at home we are
Speaking a language only we know
In each other’s arms
