Strange One

Look at those faces,
It blows my mind how you're so kind,
You make excuses like "they're just old friends",
So i'm out of your face then,
It blows my mind every time,
I feel like i should've slowed for you,
I feel like i should've locked up inside for you,
Now i'm on an ice cold tension,
But i just want to get to know you better, strange one,
Strange one...
You say it's all ace,
But i can tell that you feel unwell,
You let's go and hide it,
Just go, go and hide,
Driving me under the carpet,
With all of your habbits that bring you down,
I feel like i should've slowed for you,
I could've locked up inside for you,
Now i feel an ice cold tension,
I just want to get to know you, strange one,
You're a strange, strange one...
O o o ow...
I feel like i should've slowed for you,
I could've locked up inside too,
Now i'm on an ice cold tension,
But i just want to get to know you better, strange one,
Strange one...
