Music: Nick Ward/Perfectworld
Did I ever tell the story where I killed a boy in self-defence?
Cos I loved him so much - at the time it made a lot of sense
I don’t wanna explain myself to them,
So they can find a little box they can put me in
(Go on and tell them, baby)
I feel like an alien
In every single room I’m in
Thought that I was stronger,
But it’s all pretend
I thought I’d never feel this way again
Sometimes it’s like I’m cut in two
You know I’d give both parts to you
Sometimes I finally see the truth
And I feel brand new
I feel like an alien
In every single room I’m in
Thought that I was hot shit,
Made it big - dreaming like a kid again
Sometimes it’s like I’m cut in two
You know I’d give both parts to you
Sometimes I finally see the truth
And I feel brand new
You took my life and you made it beautiful
They clipped my wings but I made it through
I see the outlines of the things you wanna say
Take your time, baby – take your time
That’s okay
(Go on and tell them, baby)
Sometimes it’s like I’m cut in two
You know I’d give both parts to you
Sometimes it’s like I’m cut in two,
But I’ll be here through it all, til it’s gone
And you feel brand new
(Now you’re brand new)
Hot shit, made it big
Dreaming like a little kid
Everything you wanted – now you’ve got it, baby
This is it
This is it
