LYRICS
My bones are the bars of a jail
And I’ve never felt completely female
I sleep when the sun starts to rise
So I spend the night drying my eyes
And I watch all the humans, they move place to place
And hide in plain sight with that look on their face
Do they feel the same or is it just me?
I wish I could fly into that beautiful beam
And I don’t fit in, I’m struggling
I’m trying to be one of them
But I’m an alien around here
My soul’s crawling out of my skin
Yea this gravity’s wearing me thin
I’d probably breathe better on Mars
Floating up there above the stars
And I watch all the humans, they move place to place
And hide in plain sight with that look on their face
Do they feel the pain or is it just me?
I wish I could fly into that beautiful beam
And I don’t fit in, I’m strugglin’
I’m trying to be one of them
But I’m an alien around here
They look at me like I’m from light-years away
And I don’t fit in, I’m struggling
I’m not trying to be one of them
I’m an Alien, around here

This band is so good. My 14 year old daughter started to learn how to play the bass and she chose she's kerosene for her 1st song. Thanks for keeping Ska music alive.

@@niellalien Thank you so much! For years we have plans for cartoon series based on our own ideas. International and for Ukraine too. We really hope we'll be well and alive to work on them and release at lest several of them. It is nice to hear that people interested to see it.
The best songs are the story telling kind we all can relate too, our roads we've traveled, common ground, keep expressing and inspiring. We ain't gotta go at it alone. Let's ride out!!
This album was Aimees life, emotions, heart and soul put into lyrics. I could feel how personal this was. So deep and raw and emotional not just this song but the entire album. It must have been very hard to share this with the world. Ive been a day one fan of The Interrupters and I see them any opportunity I get. Please come back to Fresno.

The catharsis in this song is wild.
An absolutely gut wrenching song. So emotionally deep.
This is how I felt until I found my local punk scene!
Music - A gateway to empathy. What I love about music is the journey that it takes me on. It can be a phrase in the lyrics. It can be a musical cord that resonates a starter thought or feeling. Or just the vibe of the song or video. Music is teleportation without physical movement. This song and video was cerebral rocket fuel.

Where was this in my middle school days? Because this song is so relatable to me. I was always different from the other kids growing up, and never really had a song with lyrics that resonated with that the way this song does. Even if I acted proud of my differences (when right now I genuinely am), I still wanted someone to fit in with in the way I was. It's especially hard since I grew up with OCD and social anxiety in a very conservative small town who casts out a lot of people who are different from them in terms of interests, beliefs, behaviors, etc. Thank you so much for this song- these lyrics will always be special to me
Actually in tears. What a beautiful message and song. 🫶🤘
This song hit me so hard when I first heard it, I had it on repeat for months. Growing up in the 90s in a hick town in AZ was no fun. I dressed different. Trying to hide who I was and coming out to my parents and friends was so difficult. Then I moved to Las Vegas at 18yrs old and I finally could fully be myself. Thank you for this song❤
From the first note, on the first playthrough; this song is now part of you.
This literally matches the lyrics. Also, The most magical thing is that this song applies to everyone
Cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷 ❤
Awesome song, vid. i wasted YEARS trying to fit in.. young kids don't make my mistake !
What an incredible video for such a beautiful song 🖤
This song hits home and gives me goosebumps each time I hear it. A beautifully powerful song, I love it ❤️
Thank you Aimee for always being so open and fearless.
Amazing song and clip. It gave me the same vibe and feelings that "Gimme the Sweet and Lowdown" clip gave me about 10 years ago. Long live punk rock! ✊️❤
I just stumbled across Alien about a month ago and now there's a video that fits the feeling of the song so well, including the hopeful defiance of the final chorus -- I love it!
My soul felt this song down in ITS soul!

@@Madtwins The graveyard scene is so powerful...to feeling so much useless to society, that you choose that way. One of the saddest scenes I have ever seen anywhere. But did she die and become a ghost eventually, like the others?
If i need i can pass as "one of them" and they like me, but it gets exhausting really fast. Hope everyone find support and family in friends where they can be themselves. Love for everyone who needs it.

Yes we made a video for Social Distortion "Gimme the Sweet and Lowdown" and similarity with the "Alien" video of Interrupters is the focus on visualisation of emotions of main character.

I like many parts in it, but the scene, when Skelly climbs into the grave to rest there, that has me in tears every single time...and I'm a grown man at almost 41. Being a sort of social outcast with my choice of music and clothing style, also, some bodily flaws, I feel for anyone who can relate.
Made me shed a tear just like social distortion's video for "give me the sweet and lowdown" the first time I watched it
