Alien Love Call (feat. Blood Orange)

Turnstile's 'Alien Love Call' featuring Blood Orange is a song that delves into the themes of connection, individuality, and the search for meaning. The repeated line 'Can't be the only one' suggests a yearning for understanding and a sense of belonging. The speaker seems to be reaching out, looking for others who share a similar glow or inner light, indicating a desire for companionship or kinship on a deeper level.

The lyrics 'All my glow is on' and 'Can my will be strong?' reflect an internal struggle and the need for self-affirmation. The 'glow' could symbolize the individual's unique essence or spirit, and the questioning of the will's strength might point to doubts about maintaining one's identity or staying true to oneself in the face of external pressures. The song's title, 'Alien Love Call,' further emphasizes the feeling of being an outsider and the longing to connect with others who are also on the fringes.

The latter part of the song introduces a more introspective tone with 'Light inside of me, Hard enough to see, What else could it mean?' This suggests a contemplation of one's inner light and its significance. The lines 'Love is in the heart, It came like a dream, Loners out to roam, Sewn at the seam' could be interpreted as the realization that love and connection are fundamental to the human experience, even for those who feel like loners. The imagery of being 'sewn at the seam' implies that there is something that inherently binds individuals together, despite feelings of isolation or alienation.
