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
