OK So Mitchell's Challenge was to write a "sequel" to a previous song we had previously written. So I went back to a song from second round "Just their Animal" about someone who gets abducted by aliens ,and ends up liking it. In this tune, he has been returned to Earth after they have gotten what they wanted of him /her and the character now longs to go back to the ship and get away from their rotten life.
lyrics
When I came back down
Oh how I wish I could forget
all the love I felt in side when they touched me and surrounded me
Far Far away
One night in space is where I've been
Oh how I long to be more than just their animal again
Just take me in
Don't call for me, don't cry for me back home
I will give myself to you
Please Pry at me, please tie me up again
God knows Its strange
But I feel I belong back there with them
Just an object and a specimen to test with words to share
Oh how I pray
that they needed me as I needed them
to tear to rip apart like a wounded animal again
Please take me in
Remember me as I fall asleep
I will give myself to you
This worlds unkind to me In the stars I do belong
I will give myself to you
Take me back
I want to be more than just your animal again
Just take me in
