Foreigner Lyrics

By Ledger

Lyrics

[Verse 1]

The feast is set before me

It's on plates of platinum

But all I taste is ashes and my lips are turning numb

The smiles in the beauty and the promises I see

Glory, hallelujah never said it came for free

Ring around the roses

I see through your poses

Ashes to ashes

It all comes falling down


[Pre-Chorus]

I thought I would belong right here

When I was younger

But there's something in the atmosphere

Whispers of wonder


[Chorus]

I, I am a foreigner

Got a fire in my soul, never giving up

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here

Fight till I make it home

But keep my eyes to the skies even if I don't

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here


[Verse 2]

Hold out your hand of riches and display your royalty

I'm fine with my bloodline in a different dynasty

Worship at the altar of your vanity

I'll be in the Promised Land and let You be

London bridge is falling down

My fair lady holds her crown

Ashes to ashes

Where's your savior now?


[Pre-Chorus]

I thought I would belong right here

When I was younger

But there's something in the atmosphere

Whispers of wonder


[Chorus]

I, I am a foreigner

Got a fire in my soul, never giving up

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here

Fight till I make it home

But keep my eyes to the skies even if I don't

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here


[Bridge]

I, I fix my eyes

On the island

Heavens

I, I fix my eyes

On the island

Heavens


[Chorus]

I, I am a foreigner

Got a fire in my soul, never giving up

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here

Fight till I make it home

But keep my eyes to the skies even if I don't

And I know I don't belong right here

I know I don't belong right here
