Ledger - Foreigner (Lyric Video)
Lyrics:
Verse 1
The feast is set before me
And some plates of platinum
But all I taste is ashes and my lips are turning numb
The smiles and the beauty in 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 give it up
And I know I don't belong right here
I know I don't belong right here
Fly 'til I make it home
Then keep my eyes to the skies even if I'm down
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 give it up
And I know I don't belong right here
I know I don't belong right here
Fly 'til I make it home
Then keep my eyes to the skies even if I'm down
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 heavens
Heavens
I, I fix my eyes
On the heavens
Heavens
I know I don't belong right here
Chorus
I, I am a foreigner
Got a fire in my soul, never give it up
And I know I don't belong right here
I know I don't belong right here
Fly 'til I make it home
Then keep my eyes to the skies even if I'm down
And I know I don't belong right here
I know I don't belong right here
