Stranger

You gave a warning, I hit the ground
I cut the corners to stay around
But like a stone you’re rolling over me

Over me
And over all the ruins of our masquerade
And over all the tombs of every heart you slayed
And through the barricade your keeper laid for you

And you’ll go on your own way
Fly to Paris, take a train to London town to settle down
Where your heart’s away from danger
And I’ll go on my own way
Underground and hide away in Hollywood, understood
To love you, I will be a stranger

I played the numbers, I fought the truth
I piled up the wreckage to black out the view
But in the morning I’ll burn the whole thing down

And through the ashes I will get to rolling too
Far away to breathe a breath of something new
And when I find it, I’ll be waiting there for you, for you

And you’ll go on your own way
Fly to Paris, take a train to London town to settle down
Where your heart’s away from danger
And I’ll go on my own way
Underground and hide away in Hollywood, understood
To love you, I will be a stranger

(Go on your own way)
I'll be a stranger
(And I'll go on my own)
I'll be a stranger
(And you go on your own way)
I'll be a stranger
(And I'll go on my own)

And you’ll go on your own way
Fly to Paris, take a train to London town to settle down
Where your heart’s away from danger
And I’ll go on my own way
Underground and hide away in Hollywood, understood
To love you, I will be a stranger
