The Alien

Blinding white Sahara sand
Sheltering sky's got a hole
Love you more than he ever can
but your mother loves you more than anyone

Must be the sharp toothed beast
why this mockingbird don't sing
Must be this incurable disease
or the alien in me

Stepped out into the rain
Water felt like nails
Held my breath and tried to pull the string
but the string slipped away like everything

Must be the sharp toothed beast
why this mockingbird don't sing
Must be her insincerity
or the alien in me
