The Stranger
I am a stranger
You can't see me
I am a stranger
Do you know what I mean?
I navigate the mud
I walk a-bove the path
Jumpin' to the right
Then I jump to the left
On a secret path

The one that nobody knows
And i'm moving fast
On the path that nobody knows
And what I'm feelin'
Is anyone's guess
What is in my head

And what's in my chest
I'm not gonna stop
I'm just catching my breathe
They're not gonna stop
Please just let me catch my breathe

I am a stranger
You can't see me
I am a stranger
Do you know what I mean?
That is not my dad
My dad is not a wild man
Doesn't even drink
My daddy's not a wild man
On a secret path
The one that nobody knows
And I'm moving fast
On the path that nobody knows

I am a stranger
I am a stranger
I am a stranger
I am a stranger
