Always a Stranger



Written by Jimmy Tittle and Steve Watts · © All rights reserved

When were you wounded
Who did it to you
Where’s the little piece of Heaven that you lost

What is the secret
Affecting you so deeply
The one that you’ll hide at any cost

You’re always a stranger
In any room of people
Always the one that needs to stand alone
You’re hoping for safety
While looking for danger
Believe me, I know you
You’re always a stranger

Who left you thinking
Love is a hurting game
Is there some unwritten law that says you must pay

Who is that making
All that useless conversation
Is it a voice so strong you can’t get away

You’re always a stranger
In any room of people
Always the one that needs to stand alone
You’re hoping for safety
While looking for danger
Believe me, I know you
You’re always a stranger

Is this ghost to which you’re clinging really
That much larger than yourself
Do you think that’s all that’s left for you now
And the future holds no promise
But the past is only darkness
If you don’t let it go
Then you’ll never know

You’re always a stranger
In any room of people
Always the one that needs to stand alone
You’re hoping for safety
While looking for danger
Believe me, I know you
You’re always a stranger
