Strangers from Foreign Life by Pony Girl

Doesn't matter what you say, walk out the door.
You don't need them anymore.
All of your friends — I call them strangers.

Who you are will always be met with resistance.

I would look up to you.
Tall monument, indestructible.
To reach your height, impossible.

I swear that I won't think too much of the past.
Someday we will fall apart.
Jenny please, put your trust in me.
Stop lying yourself to sleep at night.

Did I hear you call again, for help, his name in vain?
Tell me, why didn't you talk to me?
I would have loved to hear your voice again in confidence.
For an hour, minute, second
— enough to prove that I'm wrong.
As you lead me to my knees,
all of my friends are smiling.

And I feel so good,
I just feel so good.
Makes me feel so good.

Strangers, till death do us part.
Repeat after me, this time:
what have I done?
I could have grown old with you,
but I'm just a stranger.
Look over the walls you built around me.
