Stranger, stranger... I... don't know where I'm goin' But what I'm leavin' behind... I already know Run... the streets have no ending But what I'm hopin' to find... I just can't ignore I live to be strong... I want to be king But I act so unwise--look how foolish I've been When time after time... I try to be me But I look down inside--it's the stranger I see Stranger, stranger... stranger to myself I was born on the other side of life I'm just a stranger... stranger to myself Never thought I'd ever cry Never thought we'd ever be denied Stranger to myself... Why... are my thoughts so uncertain Will I ever unwind... this damage I've done Love--It's a fight--it's your life--it's not over Can you look at me now... and show me I'm wrong For once in my life... I want to be good But I'm playin' the bad boy... much more than I should When time after time... I try to explain Those voices inside... they're callin' out again Stranger, stranger... stranger to myself I was born on the other side of life I'm just a stranger... stranger to myself Who'd have thought we'd ever hide Who'd have thought we'd ever be denied Now don't ask me why... I don't really know But sure as I'm breathin' I've got to let it go The eyes of a man... see the world of a child The door it lies open--won't you step inside and see the Stranger... stranger to myself I was born on the other side of life I'm just a stranger... stranger to myself Who's to fall if you won't try Who's to fall if you won't try... you won't try... you don't wanna try Stranger to myself
