Alien

I sleep on the wing

Above the rainclouds

Blown by the wind (no roots on earth)

No ground below (no ground below)

Just ruins (timeless)

Dandelion clocks (drifting)

Am I from Venus? (higher, higher)

No ocean bed, no west-wind drift

No desert sand, land or sea

No world below, blown by the wind (limbless) (homeless)

Not human

Lost in longing (lost in longing)

Never belonging (never belonging)

Am I from Venus? (higher, higher, higher)

No roots on earth (I sleep on the wing)

Nowhere I search (above the rainclouds)

No roots on earth (blown by the wind)

No ground below

Timeless (just ruins)

Drifting (dandelion clocks)

Higher, higher, higher, higher

Blown by the wind

Above the rainclouds (no roots on earth)

Evening starlight

The night's below (no lights below)

Just ruins (no ocean bed) (rootless)

Dandelion clocks (no west-wind drift) (drifting)

Am I from Venus? (higher, higher) (no desert sand)
