Woke up - still in a dream nothing's the same can't pronounce my name I open my mouth words come out that make no sense for a stranger's ear in a foreign language in a foreign land now I'm an alien on a different planet it makes it clear - I understand we are all strangers - in a foreign land burn the bridges forge ahead to the hilt back home I feel insane nothing's the same except for my name I open my mouth words come out that make no sense for my lover's ear in my native language in my native land I'm still the alien on a different planet it makes it clear - I understand I am a stranger - in my own land burn the bridges forge ahead to the hilt
