'I LIKE TO WANDER SOME GRAVEYARDS ALONE
AND THINK OF ALL THAT IʼVE BECOME
WHAT KIND OF BOX I WOULD GO
AND WOULD YOU EVEN NOTICE
MY DISAPPEARANCE MY IMPRESSIONS
IʼM JUST WAITING, WAITING...

AND UNTIL THEN MY DESOLATION
WILL BE MY TRADEMARK
IʼLL ALWAYS REMAIN ALIEN
AND HOWEVER HARD I TRY TO INTEGRATE
IʼLL ALWAYS REMAIN ALIEN

YOU SAY I SHOULD GO OUT
IN EVERY BRUTAL TOWN
THERE IS SOMEONE OF SUBSTANCE
FORCING ME TO DO THINGS I NEVER DO
FOR INSTANCE LAUGH AT JOKES OF YOU
SMALL TALKS HAVE SIMPLY NO RELEVANCE

AND UNTIL YOU CHANGE
IʼLL KEEP MY DELIGHTED FACE
IT IS MY TRADEMARK TO ALWAYS REMAIN ALIEN
AND HOWEVER HARD I TRY TO INTEGRATE
IʼLL ALWAYS REMAIN ALIEN'

[rosey]

i love this band so much. their voices are absolutely enchanting and ethereal. gives such tortured, sorrowful, and passionate energy.

[asinussum]

Some of the scenes are shot in Heidelberg, the city i was born in, would recognize this bridge anywhere.
Good to see post-punk is still alive.

[roseberry]

This band is amazing. They took a while to grow on me originally, but now they are my favorite. They helped me get through some hard times. Their lyrics and songs are beautiful.

[bionicle]

"And however hard I try to integrate... I'll always remain alien."
I cry every time I hear that line. It's so true and it speaks to me in so many different levels 💔

[Numetalbabie]

I like to wander some graveyards alone
And think of all that iʼve become
What kind of box i would go
And would you even notice
My disappearance my impressions
Iʼm just waiting, waiting...

[Chorus]
And until then my desolation
Will be my trademark
Iʼll always remain alien
And however hard i try to integrate
Iʼll always remain alien

[Verse 2]
You say i should go out
In every brutal town
There is someone of substance
Forcing me to do things i never do
For instance laugh at jokes of you
Small talks have simply no relevance

[Chorus]
And until you change
Iʼll keep my delighted face
It is my trademark to always remain alien
And however hard i try to integrate
Iʼll always remain alien

[David-hrmq]

Being a child of the 80s I am blown away by this band that I just recently discovered. I have to now admit that good music did not completely die in the 90s and it is still being made. It's just a little harder to find.

[chrishenniker]

I’m not a goth, but I admire the subculture from afar because of its creativity, inventiveness, highly developed sense of humour and how it can see beauty emerging from the tragic. Like a phoenix from the ashes. Above all, its rejection of the mundane. I’m looking at the best things in years.

[ThiCC_Yosh]

As a proud outcast from every group in society. this song is my life’s anthem and comfort

[brunorocca]

That delicious flanging bass... Reminds me of the whole "Seventeen Seconds" album by The Cure. Lebanon Hanover is now one of my fav bands, great to see Dark Wave is still alive and kicking ass.

[Lopatije]

If you are here, you are alien already. And that is awesome.

[albertodf]

2020 and still she's got the most obscure, beautiful voice ever

[kaibichisda]

I love the way she holds her laughter.

[robertneige]

3:22 masterpiece + 3:38 the voices of them at the same time, nice one amazing

[examichelle]

This is an anthem for every person who ever felt like they don't fit, specially goths. We'll always remain alien.

[sethnemesis]

This song is living rent-free in my head. Any moment of silence my head immediately starts playing it

[jacquesfrancois]

I genuinly felt like giving Larissa a hug by the end of this

[shoolartgraft]

this tune is so beautiful. she is so poetic and so melancholy sad that when I listen to her cry from sadness. I live this tune. I want to listen to it at night alone. Lebanon Hanover, thank you. Alien song will go down in music history😭😭😭🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

[ragnaroksafari]

Never thought about this before now, but the fact that William and Larissa arent filmed together in the same place actually illustrates the theme quite well. Two people, both alienated from their respective society, but also from eachother, since their both live in their own isolated worlds and will never meet. Sad reflection of how it often works in the real world. "You say i should go out in every brutal town, there is someone of substance" like she says but youre unlikely to find your type of person in the busy public places because your type of person hates those places as much as you do.

[jralexandremota]

Sou de fortaleza, Ceará, BRasil e adoro essa banda.

[cherish]

I recently came across this band and really love 'em. I'm on a binge with their songs - they just do it for me. 💜🌹
