lyrics

Dm F
I was just another alien entity,
Dm Am
a reconnaissance mission employee.
Dm F
It started with a needle pushed into him,
Dm Am
with a simple biopsy of her skin.
F Am
Then I was asked to spy on them
F Dm
and things really started to progress.
Dm F
I watched them study creatures they couldn’t explain
Dm Am C
and hoped I’d be next on their list to investigate.

Dm F G
I fell in love with the seeker and the skeptic.
C G F
Now I want an outpost in Antarctica,
G F
a beach house on the west coast of Africa.
G F G F
We’ll stall colonization by showing the nations
G F c
that humans and aliens can live in peace.
F G F
I’d be glad to see the two of them in love
C Dm F Am
but in my dreams it’s the three of us.

The doctor would heal me if I was hurt,
the believer he would believe in me.
But as much as I’m enamoured with them,
as kind and curious as they might be,
I know I could never be anything more
than their cryptid of the week.

about
