The Stranger - Ten

Talk to me

Talk to the stranger

Talk to the stranger

Tired of wasting precious time praying for the rain

Rip away my innocence, take away the pain

Everyday I fantasize, sad enough but true

Dreaming of a better life outside this room

Wizened, the expressionless faces made of clay

Colour ground to monochrome, dirty shades of grey

Counting our tomorrows like all our yesterdays

Carbon copies thrown around, rewind, erase

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Turn a shrouded face to the light

Burn beyond this place to another world

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Throw this isolation a line

Don’t deny this taste of another, girl

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

I could give her everything if she has the key

She who holds this beating heart, tears it out of me

Patience is a lonely sound, now it’s wearing thin

Losing my control around this fire within

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Turn a shrouded face to the light

Burn beyond this place to another world

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Throw this isolation a line

Don’t deny this taste of another, girl

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Talk to the stranger

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Turn a shrouded face to the light

Burn beyond this place to another world

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Throw this isolation a line

Don’t deny this taste of another, girl

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Throw this isolation a line

Don’t deny this taste of another, girl

Talk to me now, talk to the stranger

Talk, talk, talk to the stranger

Talk, talk, talk to the stranger
