Lyrics
The Stranger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Tired of wasting precious time praying for the rain
Rip away my innocence take away the pain
Everyday I fantasize, sad enough but true
Dreaming of a better life, outside the tomb…
Wizened, the expressionless faces made of day
Colour ground to monochrome, dirty shades of Grey
Counting our tomorrows like all our yesterdays
Carbon copies thrown around, rewind, erase…
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
Turn a shrouded face to the light
Burn beyond this place to another world
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
Throw this isolation a line
Don't deny this taste of another, girl
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
I could give her everything if she has the key
She who holds the beating heart, tears t out of me
Patience is a lonely sound, now it's wearing thin
Loosing my control around this fire within…
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
Turn a shrouded face to the light
Burn beyond this place to another world
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
Throw this isolation a line
Don't deny this taste of another, girl
Talk to me now…talk to the stranger
