lyrics

( ( ( PLANET X ) ) )

From when I was a child
I’d close my eyes
and hear a lullaby
inside of my head
nobody hears it
where does it come from
a gentle guitar strum
calling to me
I tried to hide it
forget and fight it
but nothing could stop
the song in my head
with no outlet to express...

Resigned myself, accept the fact
that I must be crazy
how can you blame me
the song in my head
was such a distraction
a physical reaction
to tap on my leg
a voice deep inside
so I closed my eyes
to try to decipher
the message it meant...

Transmissions from Planet X...

When I close my eyes
to look deep inside
I realized
the voice wasn’t mine
seems I was chosen
as some sort of spokesman
a vehicle for the transmissions they send
why did they chose me
I’ll never know
I only hope the song that they send
is faithfully rendered
when received by its sender
from somewhere afar
right down to my head
in transmissions from Planet X...
