Alien
[Tokio Hotel]® Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's an alien in me
Who are you
Who am I
Blood is all I see
The words in the mirror
Are makinґ me shiver
Come and bring me back to life
(Alien)
I lay down on the edge
I feel my whole life on rewind
See your face
In the crowd
A million times
I'm drowning, I'm fallinґ
I hear myself callinґ
Save me with your love tonight
Come and bring me back to life
Save me with your light tonight
You can make the darkness shine
Come and kill the dream gone bad
Alien to love
Come and wake me from the dead
Alien to love
Need your love
Save me with your love tonight
Come and bring me back to life
Save me with your light tonight
You can make the darkness shine
Come and kill the dream gone bad
Alien to love
Come and wake me from the dead
Alien to love
Need your love
The first verse of Tokio Hotel's song "Alien" expresses the feeling of being lost and disconnected from oneself, with the lyrics "I feel lost in myself, there's an alien in me." The theme of feeling like an outsider is also present with the mention of blood being all the singer sees, highlighting their alienation from the world around them. The following lines, "who are you, who am I, the words in the mirror are making me shiver," showcase a sense of confusion and questioning of identity.
