Stranger
Lost Love's Melody: Unraveling the Stranger Within
Lyrics
Something's got my head repeating melodies
Feeling a repetitive presence of melodies in the mind.
Something kept me slipping into fever dreams
Experiencing a tendency to enter intense and vivid dreams.
Of writing on the mirror that I cannot read
Writing on a mirror that is illegible or unclear.
I woke up to find a stranger sleeping next to me
Awakening to discover a stranger sharing the same sleeping space.
I know it hurts, I know you try
Acknowledging emotional pain and understanding the effort put forth.
You know I'd rather live a lie than let you down
Expressing a preference for living a falsehood rather than disappointing someone.
You can come around any time you want and I'll be here
Offering continuous support and availability for the other person.
If somebody hurts you, if somebody tries
Willingness to confront and defend against those who harm the other person.
Just give me their name, baby, I wanna fight for you
Requesting information to stand up for and protect the loved one.
But you won't fight for me
Expressing disappointment in the absence of reciprocal efforts.
Something's got you straying into darker seas
Noticing a deviation towards darker and uncertain paths.
Something's got you wandering away from me
Observing a loved one drifting away emotionally.
Love notes on your palms, darling, where have you been?
Questioning the whereabouts of the loved one, symbolized by love notes on palms.
I fell asleep and saw a stranger pressed against your skin
Having a dream where a stranger is intimately close to the loved one.
Wake me up and take me home
Requesting to be awakened and taken home, indicating a desire for emotional safety.
If you won't hold me then I wanna go
Expressing a need for physical closeness and affection.
You say I'm crazy when you know I'm right
Asserting sanity and correctness despite being labeled as crazy.
It's what's keeping you up all night
Identifying a cause for the other person's restless nights.
It's in her eyes, it's in my chest
Feeling an intense emotional response, physically manifested in the chest.
Beating so fucking hard, I feel like I'm gonna die
Experiencing a heightened and overwhelming emotional state.
So I want to know,
Pose a question about the possession of the loved one's soul by another.
If she's got your body, who's got your soul?
Questioning the depth of connection with another person who has the loved one's body.
