Safe as a Stranger

Are you able to speak to me

Truthfully

I'm not hearing what you're saying

And I am not being cruel



We just do what we are told

All living in their lies

We're stepping into a song

And changing all the lines



Isn't it strange

We could never make it



I feel that I'm a stranger

But at least I'm safe this way

Do you really care or are you just afraid

I can't make sense of this



Empty excuses fry my heart

Wasting time

Things I could say don't even rhyme



To be you is to see you

I'd love that

I placed those words there

You refused to speak of me



I don't possess all the things I desire

Everything I refuse to be, I hate

Put my sweater on

It's so cold in my heart.
