The Alien
John Andrew Hull
The lights were low enough, you guessed
You swapped your conscience with your fathers medication
Limped from Rome to Lawrenceville
And on the way wrote out a self-made declaration
And when you got to Pleasant Hill
You forced the traffic to erase your family demons
And made a pact with you and God
If you don't move I swear to you I'm gonna make ya
Do you need me?
Do you need me?
Do you need me?
Do you need me?
When the first officer arrived
It happened to be the high school bully of your brother
When you finally recognized
You felt some guilt that you had even let him touch you
Can you hear me? What's your name?
You could not speak just laid amazed at all the damage
And as the high school's letting out
All the kids saying the same thing that they used to
It's an alien
It's an alien
It's an alien
It's an alien
The lights are low enough, you guessed
Hospital food, there's never enough medication
The doctor asked about your ears
You said your mom said you were made from a revelation
The revelation never scares
If you came from your drunken dad and a pair of scissors
You just finally letting go?
Did you mean to take out all those people with you?
Didn't mean to
Didn't mean to
Didn't mean to
Didn't mean to
Oh I didn't mean to (Oh I didn't take the time to learn to let you go)
Oh I didn't mean to (Never letting go)
No I didn't mean to (Oh I didn't take the time to learn to let you go)
Oh I didn't mean to (Never letting go)
Time is here to take your last amendments and believe them on your own
Time is here to take you by the hand and leave you there alone
Time has come to take the last commandment and to carve it into stone
Time has come to take you by the hand and leave you here alone
The lights were low enough, you guessed
Le luci erano abbastanza basse, hai indovinato
You swapped your conscience with your fathers medication
Hai scambiato la tua coscienza con i farmaci di tuo padre
Limped from Rome to Lawrenceville
Zoppicato da Roma a Lawrenceville
And on the way wrote out a self-made declaration
E lungo il cammino hai scritto una dichiarazione fatta da te
And when you got to Pleasant Hill
E quando sei arrivato a Pleasant Hill
You forced the traffic to erase your family demons
Hai costretto il traffico a cancellare i tuoi demoni familiari
And made a pact with you and God
E hai fatto un patto con te e Dio
If you don't move I swear to you I'm gonna make ya
Se non ti muovi ti giuro che ti farò muovere
Do you need me?
Hai bisogno di me?
Do you need me?
Hai bisogno di me?
Do you need me?
Hai bisogno di me?
Do you need me?
Hai bisogno di me?
When the first officer arrived
Quando è arrivato il primo ufficiale
It happened to be the high school bully of your brother
Si è rivelato essere il bullo della scuola superiore di tuo fratello
When you finally recognized
Quando finalmente l'hai riconosciuto
You felt some guilt that you had even let him touch you
Ti sei sentito in colpa per averlo anche solo lasciato toccarti
Can you hear me? What's your name?
Mi senti? Qual è il tuo nome?
You could not speak just laid amazed at all the damage
Non potevi parlare, eri solo stupito di tutto il danno
And as the high school's letting out
E mentre la scuola superiore sta finendo
All the kids saying the same thing that they used to
Tutti i ragazzi dicono la stessa cosa che dicevano prima
It's an alien
È un alieno
It's an alien
È un alieno
It's an alien
È un alieno
It's an alien
È un alieno
The lights are low enough, you guessed
Le luci sono abbastanza basse, hai indovinato
Hospital food, there's never enough medication
Cibo d'ospedale, non c'è mai abbastanza medicazione
The doctor asked about your ears
Il dottore ha chiesto delle tue orecchie
You said your mom said you were made from a revelation
Hai detto che tua madre ha detto che sei nato da una rivelazione
The revelation never scares
La rivelazione non fa mai paura
If you came from your drunken dad and a pair of scissors
Se vieni da tuo padre ubriaco e un paio di forbici
You just finally letting go?
Stai finalmente lasciando andare?
Did you mean to take out all those people with you?
Volevi davvero portare via tutte quelle persone con te?
Didn't mean to
Non volevo
Didn't mean to
Non volevo
Didn't mean to
Non volevo
Didn't mean to
Non volevo
Oh I didn't mean to (Oh I didn't take the time to learn to let you go)
Oh non volevo (Oh non ho preso il tempo per imparare a lasciarti andare)
Oh I didn't mean to (Never letting go)
Oh non volevo (Mai lasciare andare)
No I didn't mean to (Oh I didn't take the time to learn to let you go)
No, non volevo (Oh non ho preso il tempo per imparare a lasciarti andare)
Oh I didn't mean to (Never letting go)
Oh non volevo (Mai lasciare andare)
Time is here to take your last amendments and believe them on your own
Il tempo è qui per prendere le tue ultime modifiche e crederci da solo

Il tempo è qui per prenderti per mano e lasciarti lì da solo
Time has come to take the last commandment and to carve it into stone
Il tempo è arrivato per prendere l'ultimo comandamento e scolpirlo nella pietra
Time has come to take you by the hand and leave you here alone
Il tempo è arrivato per prenderti per mano e lasciarti qui da solo
The lights were low enough, you guessed
As luzes estavam baixas o suficiente, você adivinhou
You swapped your conscience with your fathers medication
Você trocou sua consciência pela medicação do seu pai
Limped from Rome to Lawrenceville
Manquejou de Roma a Lawrenceville
And on the way wrote out a self-made declaration
E no caminho escreveu uma declaração autônoma
And when you got to Pleasant Hill
E quando você chegou a Pleasant Hill
You forced the traffic to erase your family demons
Você forçou o trânsito a apagar seus demônios familiares
And made a pact with you and God
E fez um pacto com você e Deus
If you don't move I swear to you I'm gonna make ya
Se você não se mover, juro que vou te fazer
Do you need me?
Você precisa de mim?
Do you need me?

Do you need me?
Você precisa de mim?
Do you need me?
Você precisa de mim?

You could not speak just laid amazed at all the damage
Você não conseguia falar, apenas ficou maravilhado com todo o dano
And as the high school's letting out
E quando a escola estava saindo
All the kids saying the same thing that they used to
Todas as crianças dizendo a mesma coisa que costumavam
It's an alien
É um alienígena
