Alien song
Unearth the Cosmic Cry: Anne Gekon's Alien Ode
Lyrics
I wanna know what you understand
The singer expresses a desire to understand someone's perspective or feelings, repeated multiple times for emphasis.
I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-Sometimes I just wanna say goodbye
The singer sometimes feels the urge to bid farewell.
Alien friend why don't you take me away
The singer appeals to an "alien friend" to take them away.
So far away the earth is getting too cold
Earth is becoming inhospitable, signifying a sense of environmental or personal discomfort.
This feeling really got me going crazy
The singer is overwhelmed by a strong emotion.
Why why why oh why why
Expressing confusion or frustration with the situation.
Martian friend please come and take me away
A plea to a "Martian friend" to take the singer away due to Earth becoming too hot.
So far away the earth is getting too hot
Continuation of the theme of Earth's increasing temperature.
And I don't know what to do
The singer is uncertain and struggling but is making efforts.
I'm trying all I could do
-And baby if this goes on then
If the current situation persists, the singer anticipates needing support.
I'm probably sure I'll need you by my side
-We only got one life to live
Reflection on the finite nature of life.
So why we really taking this too far
Questioning the extent to which problems are being taken seriously.
They can't stop stop stop it really hurts
Expressing pain and a willingness to shed one's identity ("strip this skin") if it helps.
Then baby I'd rather strip this skin call me alien
-Alien alien alien
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I wanna know what you understand
-I'm talking bout red planet
Reference to the "red planet," possibly Mars, as a desired destination.
You wanna take me there
Someone wants to take the singer to the red planet.
Cause I feel suffocated
The singer feels suffocated and longs for escape.
My days are slowly done
A sense of urgency or limited time.
I wanna live forever
The desire for eternal life.
But I ain't got no chance
Despite the wish, the singer feels hopeless about achieving it.
The earth is slowly dying
Recognition of the Earth's deteriorating state.
Yet no one's seeing that
Observation that people are not acknowledging the environmental crisis.
They wanna go alone and they wanna leave me here
A call for solidarity to save the Earth together.
So baby hold my hand we could save this dying earth
-They wanna go alone and they wanna leave me here
-So baby hold my hand we could save this dying earth
-And baby if this goes on then
Expressing pain and a willingness to shed one's identity ("strip this skin") if it helps.
I'm probably sure I'll need you by my side
-We only got one life to live
Reiteration of the limited time available in life.
So why we really taking this too far
Expressing pain and a willingness to shed one's identity ("strip this skin") if it helps.
They can't stop stop stop it really hurts
-Then baby I'd rather strip this skin call me alien
