Stranger

(álbum: Evermore - 2016)

I can't help but press you for some honesty
The lust for composure has awoken me
From grinding my teeth against my head again
We're losing all sight to the days when all of our patience gives

I plead, absolve the weight that costs create in stealth
Because you can't lose love when it all pans out
It doesn't change a thing
No, it doesn't change a thing

All the false acclaims of the heights you'd reach
Write them all off to the faults in me
You're just a stranger
You know nothing

I can't help but guess that you're appalled to see
That I won't comply to an apology
Bring me your debts and feel the depth of imperfection
Lessons learned but not forgiven

Recall the taste you lost inside my mouth
You know I can't solve your problems so this all pans out
It'll never change a thing
It'll never change a thing

All the false acclaims of the heights you'd reach
Write them all off to the faults in me
You're just a stranger
You know nothing

Is it my indifference or do you look that much different?
All the thoughts I fought to fray
Have gone to songs meant to relate
So sing along to find your place
You're in the room but where's your face?

All the false acclaims of the heights you'd reach
Write them all off to the faults in me
You're just a stranger
You know nothing
