Aliens, I saw the flashing lights,
Circling above the city sky.
Aliens, I saw the flashing lights.
Aliens.
Aliens, though their form like yours or mine,
I heard their voices, I looked into their eyes.
Aliens.
Holding on to the little books inside their hands,
With a finger-print and a colour-photograph.
At the borderline, their fears they must hide,
Eyes straight ahead cause there's no looking back.
Aliens, with tears in their eyes,
I saw them leave and fly into the night.
Aliens who live between the law
Of where they go to,
And where they're coming from.
Of who they were and what they've yet to be.
Of what they were and who they will become.
Aliens.
