Voli - Strangers lyrics

Verse: Look at this picture of my college friends, thinking will I ever see this time again? Simple life, back when it was all so promising Now my cell phone is getting cobwebs No longer relate, because they speak another dialect Drink a little scotch for the demons, hoping maybe it can fight em off Exorcise (exercise) em on the track, runnin thru the writer's block Seem like my faith in humanity's been replaced With cynicism, lately my sanity isn't safe Oh lord, hey look a stranger's in the mirror I'm nothing like I used to look, this pain is unfamiliar Obsession, cuz I see a vision others prolly can't I feel it in my blood, but I hope it's not in vein (vain) Nah nah, now all I see is strangers Mama taught me, never talk to em, see the dangers Never open up, build a wall, never take it down Maybe I just wanna see who cares enough to break it down Chorus: Strangers alone, strangers at home Caught between love and hate, can you hear my call? Can you hear my call, can you hear my call My call, my call Does no one understand this? I guess I speak a foreign language I took a look at what was family All I saw was strangers All full of strangers Verse Two: Nouveau Don't take it personal, it's human nature You see your dreams severely shot, they call that euthanasia My lesser equals, acquaintances of a different cloth Degrade themselves on the daily, I took a different course And put my heart thru this fire for my desire And I swear I'll never burn out, like my peers that never turned out To be kings, only jesters, couldn't bring it under pressure So they piggyback their brother, benefit from his successes Taste the venom on my tongue, so bitter Look in the mirror, then reflect on how I'm slowly disappearing And the one thing that I know is that I really know nuthin I'm waitin for this relationship with my dream to go public For now, I'm socially awkward, forgot how to be human, where's my decency I'm lyin to myself so how the f** can you believe in me? I lost my savings, no register, you can't change him No emotional return when you invested in a stranger Hook Verse Three: I fear the best days behind me, not sayin I'm suicidal But Voli continues to try to k** himself on the vinyl I'm prolly a model for what not to do with your life I'm isolated, no room for no god or satan I got my own religion, I'm godforsaken Pushin to get my sh** out, I'm constipated I'm out of use, can you feel me? Be my ma**euse Ma**age me, life is a b**h, so misogyny is my truth Move through the shadows, my girl is looking for light And she's dealing with her condition, she's used to a losing battle, f** We both obsessive, her OCD is a blessing Funny what makes us lonely's the sh** that holds us together We try to sleep through the failure, can't propose to her till I become the man And I can't settle for no city hall marriage, girl, I hope ya understand Just tell the priest that I sold my soul to the devil And I hope to give him change, after that we'll hold a wedding But my side of the aisle'll be vacant, the life of a stranger Nobody knows him, will his grave title be nameless? Hold me, as I sit and look for the old me In 50 years, will I be considered the biggest regret of the old me?
