Hello, stranger, let me ask you a question
Will I still have time to go back? The roads have been snowed in by time
There's quiet behind the window, the greatest silence I've known
The kind of quiet that precedes a storm that rips off rooftops
Behind the window, the grey melts into black
You're still not speaking to me
Death lives in this wasteland
Is it only my dream?
Tell me
The walls go crumbling down, glass panes break in a snap
I'm falling down, through all the mistakes I made over the years
I can see the disappointed faces
And the pain and anger of events that are asleep now
I've been lying more than I'd ever want to admit
And the blood in my veins was colder than steel
Which is why I'm all alone today
Dear stranger, can you see what I see?
How is it possible that anyone would trust me?
That anyone was seemingly honest, though never as much as today
The same place, the same tired fear
Among the crowds of people, I'm bouncing off the bottom
Goodbye, stranger, I don't want your advice anymore
