Just like I feel….
‘Cause I don’t belong here
‘Cause I don’t belong here
‘Cause I don’t belong here
‘Cause I don’t belong here
‘Cause I don’t belong here
Those days, it was all I wanted, nowadays, it feels all the same
Used to stare at my bedroom ceiling
Wishing everything could change
Now it’s hard when you’re always searching
For the life that you left behind
Time disappears, year after year
How the hell did I get here? (‘Cause)
Used to stare at my bedroom ceiling
Wishing everything could change
Now it’s hard when you’re always searching
For the life that you left behind
Time disappears, year after year
How the hell did I get here? (‘Cause)
I feel so far away
Minutes turn to hours and the hours into days, I gave up everything
You don’t know what you got until you throw it all away
‘Cause I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong, I don’t belong
I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong
Minutes turn to hours and the hours into days, I gave up everything
You don’t know what you got until you throw it all away
‘Cause I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong, I don’t belong
I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong
Looking back on the past, all the time I wasted
Running from everyone that tells me that I’m fading out
Must be mistaken ’cause I, I, I don’t feel anything
You know I got this brain, it drives me insane
Some days I feel I can’t take the pain, I’m gone
I can’t explain it ’cause I, I, I don’t need anything (no)
Running from everyone that tells me that I’m fading out
Must be mistaken ’cause I, I, I don’t feel anything
You know I got this brain, it drives me insane
Some days I feel I can’t take the pain, I’m gone
I can’t explain it ’cause I, I, I don’t need anything (no)
I feel so far away, minutes turn to hours and the hours into days
I gave up everything, you don’t know what you got until you throw it all away
‘Cause I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong, I don’t belong
I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong
I gave up everything, you don’t know what you got until you throw it all away
‘Cause I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong, I don’t belong
I don’t belong here, I don’t belong here, I don’t belong
My new trans anthem…great song. Perfect lyrics.
Okay
I’m feeling the way that I’m feeling myself
Fuck everyone else
Gotta remember that nobody is better than anyone else, here
(Do you need some time to think it over?)
Look what they do to you
Look what they do to me
Must be joking if you think that either one is free, here
Fuck everyone else
Gotta remember that nobody is better than anyone else, here
(Do you need some time to think it over?)
Look what they do to you
Look what they do to me
Must be joking if you think that either one is free, here
Get up off your knees, girl
Stand face to face with your God
And find out what you are
(Hello, my name is human)
Hello, my name is human
And I came down from the stars
(Hello, my name is human)
Stand face to face with your God
And find out what you are
(Hello, my name is human)
Hello, my name is human
And I came down from the stars
(Hello, my name is human)
I’m ready for love, and I’m ready for war
But I’m ready for more
I know that nobody’s ever been this fucking ready before, hey
(Do you need some time to think it over?)
So figure it out, or don’t figure it out
I figured it out
The bigger the river (the bigger the river)
The bigger the drought (the bigger the drought)
But I’m ready for more
I know that nobody’s ever been this fucking ready before, hey
(Do you need some time to think it over?)
So figure it out, or don’t figure it out
I figured it out
The bigger the river (the bigger the river)
The bigger the drought (the bigger the drought)
Get up off your knees, boy
Stand face to face with your God
And find out what you are
(Hello, my name is human)
Hello, my name is human
And I came down from the stars
(Hello, my name is human)
Stand face to face with your God
And find out what you are
(Hello, my name is human)
Hello, my name is human
And I came down from the stars
(Hello, my name is human)
Fire world, I love you
Fire world
Fire world
I’m up off my knees, girl
I’m face to face with myself
And I know who I am
(Hello, my name is human)
I stole my power from the sun
I’m more than just a man
(No longer disillusioned)
I’m face to face with myself
And I know who I am
(Hello, my name is human)
I stole my power from the sun
I’m more than just a man
(No longer disillusioned)
I came down from the stars (so I’ll take my chances)
(And what are the chances)
(That I could advance)
(On my own circumstances)
(Said what are the chances?)
Hello, my name is human (and what are the chances)
(I’m not asking questions)
And I know who I am (so you keep your answers)
(I’m not asking questions)
(I’m taking my chances)
(And what are the chances)
(That I could advance)
(On my own circumstances)
(Said what are the chances?)
Hello, my name is human (and what are the chances)
(I’m not asking questions)
And I know who I am (so you keep your answers)
(I’m not asking questions)
(I’m taking my chances)
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
I hope you never fear those mountains in the distance
Never settle for the path of least resistance
Livin’ might mean takin’ chances, but they’re worth takin’
Lovin’ might be a mistake, but it’s worth makin’
Don’t let some Hellbent heart leave you bitter
When you come close to sellin’ out, reconsider
Give the heavens above more than just a passing glance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
I hope you dance
I hope you dance (Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder)
I hope you dance (Where those years have gone?)
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you’ll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
Dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance (Time is a wheel in constant motion always rolling us along)
I hope you dance (Tell me who wants to look back on their years and wonder?)
Who’s gonna pick you up?
Who’s gonna bend your rules?
Who’s gonna be your prop?
Who’s gonna play your fool?
Nobody knows just how it feels today
Nobody sees how our hearts break
Who’s gonna watch your back?
Who’s gonna reel you in?
Who’ll make surprise attacks?
Who’s gonna be there at the end?
Nobody knows just how it feels today
Nobody sees how our hearts break
Who’s gonna bring you round?
Who’s gonna let you sleep?
Who’s gonna break frown?
Who’s gonna fall down at your feet?
Nobody knows just how it feels today
Nobody sees how our hearts break
Things were all good yesterday
And then the devil took your memory
And if you fell to your death today
I hope that heaven is your resting place
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
But then that could have been the medicine
And now you’re lying in the bed again
Either way I’ll cry with the rest of them
And my father told me, son
It’s not his fault he doesn’t know your face
And you’re not the only one
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
And we’ll lie inside, a little while he wrote
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
And we’re wrapped in light, in life, in love
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
For they’re designed to be together oh
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
And we’re set alight, we’re afire love, oh, love
And things were all good yesterday
Then the devil took your breath away
And now we’re left here in the pain
Black suit, black tie standin’ in the rain
And now my family is one again
Stapled together with the strangers and a friend
Came to my mind I should paint it with a pen
Six years old I remember when
My father told me, son
It’s not his fault he doesn’t know your face
And you’re not the only one
Although my grandma used to say, he used to sing
Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
And we’ll lie inside, a little while he wrote
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
And we’re wrapped in light, in life, in love
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
For they’re designed to be together oh
With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
And we’re set alight, we’re afire love, oh, love
And my father and all of my family
Rise from the seats to sing hallelujah
And my mother and all of my family
Rise from the seats to sing halellujah
And my brother and all of my family
Rise from the seats to sing hallelujah
(And all of my brothers and my sisters, yeah)
And my father and all of my family
Rise from the seats to sing hallelujah
I’m going under and this time I fear there’s no one to save me
This all or nothing really got a way of driving me crazy
I need somebody to heal
Somebody to know
Somebody to have
Somebody to hold
It’s easy to say
But it’s never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you numbed all the pain
Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you’re not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
I’m going under and this time I fear there’s no one to turn to
This all or nothing way of loving got me sleeping without you
Now, I need somebody to know
Somebody to heal
Somebody to have
Just to know how it feels
It’s easy to say but it’s never the same
I guess I kinda liked the way you helped me escape
Now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you’re not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
And I tend to close my eyes when it hurts sometimes
I fall into your arms
I’ll be safe in your sound ’til I come back around
For now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you’re not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
But now the day bleeds
Into nightfall
And you’re not here
To get me through it all
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
I let my guard down
And then you pulled the rug
I was getting kinda used to being someone you loved
Hey
Hey
I see color raining down
Feral feeling, swaying sound
But I don’t know what you want
I am open and I am restless
Let me feel it out
Let it all come out
Wake me up, I’m fever dreaming
And now I lose control, I’m fever dreaming
Shake it out, it’s just what I’m feeling
And now I take control, I’m fever dreaming
(I’m fever-dreaming)
Oh-so quiet, when they laid me in the stream
And the star-lit sky grew before my eyes
Twenty-two women stood by the banks
And cried, oh I
Wake me up, I’m fever dreaming
And now I lose control, I’m fever dreaming
Shake it out, it’s just what I’m feeling
And now I take control, I’m fever dreaming
(I’m fever dreaming)
I must be fever dreaming
(I’m fever dreaming)
I am up with the sunrise
I’m tired and I think I want to go home
So let’s go and get started
Do you hear me calling, crying out
When I run up to the house
Catch me if you think you can
Oh, what a shame because I know
With open arms then I could hold it all
Oh, what a shame that I row
To the edges so that I can fall off
No one’s to blame but I know
With open arms that I could keep you close
Oh, what a shame that I row
To the edges so that I can fall off
I could be centered and in place
In a field full of poppies I could dream you all away
But I know that I’ve got to get running
Do you hear that roaring, pulsing sound
When I run up to the house
You can follow if you dare
Oh, what a shame because I know
With open arms then I could hold it all
Oh, what a shame that I row
To the edges so that I can fall off
No one’s to blame and I know it
With open arms then I could keep you close
Oh, what a shame that I row
To the edges so that I can fall off
But I’m not
But I’m not ready for this
But I’m not
No I’m not ready for this
Do you want it?
Do you want it to be true?
But I’m not
No I’m not ready for this (oh what a shame)
Do you need it?
Do you need it to be true?
But I’m not
No I’m not ready for this (oh what a shame)
Do you want it?
Do you want it to be true?
But I’m not
No I’m not ready for this (oh what a shame)
Do you need it?
Do you need it to be true?
But I’m not
No I’m not ready for this
Threw you the obvious and you flew with it on your back a name
In your recollection down among a million same
Difficult not to feel
a little bit disappointed and passed over
when I’ve looked right through to see you
naked but oblivious
and you don’t see me
But I threw you the obvious just to see
If there’s more behind the eyes of a fallen angel
eyes of a tragedy
Here I am expecting just a little bit too much
From the wounded but I see through it all and see you
‘Cause I threw you the obvious to see what occurs behind the
eyes of a fallen angel
Eyes of a tragedy
oh well, oh well apparently nothing
apparently nothing at all
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t see me
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t see me
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t see me
You don’t, you don’t, you don’t see me
You don’t see me
You don’t see me at all
Why do I deserve the science
to feel better about you?
At a loss I lost my cool
I denied that I found you I tried to be a basket case
I did not surprise you
I’m trying to find a signal fire
Let me know when I should move But you, amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don’t need me Why do I desire the space?
I was mourning after you
I was lost and lost my shape
There was nothing I could do I don’t want to waste away
It was all I gave to you
Take me back and take my place
I will rise right up for you But you, amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don’t need me All the while you waste away, you’re asking
“Did I really need another one to take me down?”
Everybody knows it’s something that you had to live with darling
Nobody’s gonna tear you down now
There is nothing you keep, there is only your reflection There was nothing but quiet retractions
And families pleading, “Don’t look in that cabinet, there’s far more bad than there’s good, I don’t know how it got there”
That was something your father had burned in me
Twenty hours out of Home stake eternity
You can go anywhere but you are where you came from Little girl you are cursed by my ancestry
There is nothing but darkness and agony
I can not only see, but you stopped me from blinking
Let me watch you as close as a memory
Let me hold you above all the misery
Let me open my eyes and be glad that I got here
