Wanna Be a Stranger

[Verse 1]
Don't wanna walk away but
I'm tired of acting in anger
Too tired to even try
I just wanna be a stranger
Asked my baby did she love me
She said, "Ask me later"
Didn't even say goodbye now
I just wanna be a stranger

[Verse 2]
When I was young I'd drink
My whiskey straight, no chaser
That didn't drown the pain
Now, I just wanna be a stranger
I need a place to hide
Until I do, I'm in danger
Maybe in another time, I
I could've been a stranger

[Bridge 1]
Now I've been running all my life
I could've been a master of disguise

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge 2]
Looking for another geographic change
Standing at the station waiting for the rain

[Verse 3]
So no more, my heart didn't break
It tore in two like paper
Not even shadows can hide
Only eyes of a stranger, oh
Eyes of a stranger, oh
