Lyrics

Strangers

Oh, all the strangers

That live in your head

All the strangers

You're walking with

Do they pass you by on the street

Always wonder if they'll ever meet

All the strangers

Hiding in hands

That hold you in the morning but they tear you apart

All they want is somebody else

But are they breaking you, breaking you down?

All the strangers

Whisper in your ears

All the strangers

That loved you all these years

Do you keep your hands in the air

Just in case there's somebody there?

Do you keep your hands in the air

Just in case they fall down, fall down there

All the strangers

Live in the stars

Grow lonely in the evening

Wishing down on us

Do you keep your hands in the air

Just in case they fall down there?

All the strangers

All the strangers

Are you breaking apart on the seams

Always wondering if there's somebody else for me

Are you breaking apart again?

Are you breaking apart again?

Do you keep your hands in the air

Just in case you fall down forever?

Do you keep your hands in the air

Just in case you fall down

Fall down there

Fall down there

Fall down there

Fall down there

Don't count the rules that tell you something

Don't count the rules that tell you something

Don't count the rules that tell you something

Don't count the rules that tell you something's wrong

Cause I'm gonna push

And I'll pull back

I guess that's what our love's all about

These are the words that hurt each other

These are things you wanna tell your lover

These are the things that break each other

These are things you're holding onto

Cause I'm gonna push

And I'll pull back

I guess that's what our love's all about
